Ryan on the 5.5 West Face of Castle rock. This image may make it look a little more dramatic than this fun little pitch really is, but hey, that's the point of bringing the camera along, right?

Snowy day. Looking down about halfway up pitch 2. 1/9/2011.
West Face Route, Castle Rock. The easiest line is shown (5.5). A direct line up the wide slot below the anchor is also possible, but protection is sparse.

Le piece de resistance! Chocolate stout.
Pitch 2: Amy finishing following on pitch two.
Pitch 1: Amy starting up pitch one. Don't forget to tie into the rope!
Yet another topo of the line.
Just about to do the wide finish crack.
Pitch 3: summit shot back towards Nederland from Castle Rock.
A little stiffer than the stuff below, maybe 5.7, but there are holds in there somewhere.
Look for Jon in the white shirt. He's at the top of the first pitch where the two-bolt anchor is.
Winter 05', Ben enjoying the weather.
