Climbing with friends and dogs rules and Rifle just makes you strong...

Johnny climbing hard in the sun.

Climbing in the 'Skull Cave'




Leaving Crested Butte on Thursday morning.




I was able to get out of CB with my good buddy and fellow CBMG Guide John MacKinnon http://johnnymtguide.blogspot.com/ and Roven on Thursday morning last week for a few days of sport climbing in Rifle State park. We were meeting Mike 'i'm back in the states but i really miss Chamonix' Bromberg http://theguidesnotebook.com/ and his dog louie. I had been to rifle
before but only to climb ice. The rock is amazing, climbing stellar, and the whole scene is great. i will be back!


Roven casually checking out another 5.14












Note how Louis is sitting behind Mike nice and calm like?
