Logging in the PNW

Even if you think logging is the devil’s work, you have to admit it does make for some pretty cool patterns.

Cascades by Air

Took this shot while flying out of Seattle.  I have no idea what mountain it is but I dig the picture.

Just a bit of mountain photography.

Mountain Climbing Photography Techniques

I’m not a particularly good climbing photographer.  I can pull decent images from the mountains but they are little more than snapshots that capture maybe one percent of the beauty that I’m surrounded by.  I figure I have the same keeper rate as a blind chimpanzee so what I lack in skill I compensate for [...]

Rock Climbing Photography with Dan Lubbers

My little sister is headed to college this fall and while this is a point of consternation for me I guess it was inevitable.  Like any good freshman entering a program in graphic design she will be sporting a brand new laptop.  Now one thing my sister is damned good at is chatting.  I mean she [...]

Crowders Mountain Highlighted on Blue Ridge Outdoors

BlueRidgeOutdoors.com recently posted a Happy Trails article showcasing Crowders Mountain. (link)  The only reason I mention it is because I got to play my little part by contributing a photo of my buddy Mike TRing on David’s Castle.

Scream Dream AKA Supercrack – Shortoff Mountain Rock Climbing

I can’t remember if I took this picture on the way to climb False Paradise (5.7) or Paradise Alley (5.8+) but this is Supercrack AKA Scream Dream which is a 5.11d on the North Side of Shortoff Mountain in North Carolina.  Anyhow, I thought the pic was pretty cool and wanted to share.

Crowders Mountain NC Rock Climbing – Energy Czar

Energy Czar is a 5.11 sport route on David’s Castle Wall at Crowders Mountain.  It is pretty popular as it is near Caterpillar, a 5.7 chimney, and Electra, a 5.10c sport line.  I don’t really have all that much to say about it but I wanted to post some pictures I took while I was [...]

Crowders Mountain NC Rock Climbing – Electra

I wish I could say that I’ve climbed Electra at Crowder’s Mountain but alas that would be a lie and after filing my taxes I think I have lied enough lately.  Electra is a 5.10c sport route on David’s Castle Wall of Crowder’s Mountain and is definitely one of the more popular lines.  It’s near [...]

Flickr Mountaineering Photo Group

I’ve been on a flickr kick lately because I’ve been unable to get out and climb.  I guess the next best thing to actually climbing is going on epics through photos.

Fishtail Mountain – Nepal

If this doesn’t make you want to hop a flight to Nepal right this second then you must be dead.  Actually, nix that because that is the kind of mountain that gets people dead but damn it is gorgeous.  (click on it to see it fully)
