Before we sent Mary on her way back to the Midwest we had to go back to one of our favorite climbing places, Jacks Canyon, about 30 miles S of Winslow AZ. It was a lot hotter this time around, so we spent a lot of the days chasing the shade but fantastic climbing.


family portrait- you'll see this one on the x-mas cards

Baxter and Goonie best of chums, when they're sleeping

Michael leading Genesis, super fun 10d

Carefully, carefully now...

This was an 11b? with some fun sideways moves

A scary little visitor, Goonie spotted this lovely rattler right next to our van- Luckily Goonie listened when we called him away from that intriguing noise

Sorry Mary, Baxter is not impressed

Crack climbing and leading a 10, no big deal

Well, can't be shown up by the little sis you know

And Goonie looks on...
