We’re here in Moab on a well-earned rest day.  We’ve been climbing in Indian Creek this week, and besides the cold it’s been a great time.  Posting up with 5 trucks decked out to sleep in the back, cooking feasts, climbing and kickin’ it.  Here’s a few pictures from our time here.

Funny story about the picture above:  We loaned the girls some big cams for this climb, with the warning that there would still be a 12′ runout at the top.  After I snapped this shot, the lady asked me to hang her rope from the anchors rather than finishing the climb.

The above climb, Ruby Flame was throw-up-in-your-mouth hard.  Beginning with a squeeze chimney/ 4.5″ off-width, with a .5″ finger crack crux above.
