Cams less necessary...only need a #1, #2, #4, a bunch of slings, and a gun

Hope you like crack climbing.

Mount Kenya, North Face Standard Route, Grade IV 5.9.

Aberdares National Park - lots of wild remote climbing out here!

On the top of Cat after climbing a three pitch FA (5.10+R). Cat and Mouse Pinnacles, Eastern Province, Kenya.

Unknown choss fest!

We climbed the wrong side of the wall (the inside of the "mouth"). Apparently the good climbs that have less moss are east facing

Lukenya 5.11+ climbing

Lots of climbing for new leaders as well

Spot the climber! Michael getting some sickpix.com chimney action

There's even good bouldering scattered around.

KIT MIKAYI<br>
These are sacred rocks on Kenyan Wildlife Service land. When I asked, the locals said we could use our ropes after paying to hike around the rocks with the historian. I declined to climb the incredible cracks due to the previous day's bruising at Sengalo Rocks. <br>

Kit Mikayi is visble along the paved road from Kisumu to Kogelo.

Typical rock on Main Wall

Michael you are so dramatic

Hell's Gate with the zebras and warthogs roaming around below us
