<\/a>\nOur early evening arrival<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nCampsite for the night right next to the boulders and not another soul around for miles. Life just doesn’t get any better than this<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nUsually this is a dry lakebed. Not today.<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nThe kids were infatuated with the lake. They spent the entire evening throwing rocks into it. I can just imagine all their little rocks sitting out there atop the white sand long after the lakebed dries back up.<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nDid I forget to mention this place is absolutely beautiful<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nGood morning boulders<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nHello Red Monster<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nGood morning Cow. Now let’s climb already!!!!<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nMe warming up on The Cow boulder<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nSilas sends<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nPaul’s turn on The Cow, a v3 line<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nNow it’s time to get serious. This is the other side of the Red Monster, where all the climbs are. <\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nPaul sending the mega classic Ju, v7<\/strong>. I too tried this one but only half-heartedly. With a sore back, high crux and slabby topout I wussed out and moved on.<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nAtop the Red Monster after his send. Yeah! First big send since his finger surgery!!! Woohoo!<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nAll day we found ourselves saying that the holds here at Ibex aren’t quite crimps, aren’t quite slopers and aren’t quite jugs….they’re something in between all three of those things. And they took a while to feel comfortable on. This is me sending an unnamed v5 on the Warm-Up Wall. A bitty little climb that sure packs a punch.<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nPaul giving Meat and Potatoes, v8<\/strong> a try. Too hard for today.<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nI find a climb that’s suits me perfect for today, Tranced Out and Dreamin, v6<\/strong>, with the first move being the crux. And may I just point out, I stuck this hard first move before Paul! (my short moment of glory, thank you) <\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\n…and I send it!<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nSilas atop yet another fine Ibex block<\/center><\/p>\n
\n
<\/a>\nAnd before calling it a day we quickly run up some easys on The Lone Boulder as another Utah rainstorm blows in<\/center><\/p>\n
