More Info

I'm an environmentally conscious contractor who lives in Oakland, using my Electrical and Computer Engineering degree from CU-Boulder to its fullest.

My new company has kept me SWAMPED. I'd love to say I've been climbing lately, but I'm usually recovering from 80-100 hour weeks or some dumb injury I did to myself during work.

I do like reading about your climbing adventures though, and my (few and far-between) outdoor adventures lately usually involve recon into areas I've never heard of before.

Jan 18, 2012 You're talking about Eagle Rock, Sin City and Vampire rock. I had a topo, but I think I've long since lost it :( View Message
