More Info

Always up to trade belays on hard sport at Mickey's Beach, or do a weekend trip for some long multi-pitch trad. Described as a dirtbag, I come with a blue tacoma, can sleep on the ground, and am generally game for high adventure.

5.12b 7b 26 VIII+ 26 E5 6b 106 ● Guppie Feb 6, 2026 · 3 pitches. Lead / Redpoint. Partners: Andre, Austin, Gabi, Marcel Projected with Marcel and Austin, taking turn. burns. I took an onsite burn, blew the 1st crux. 1st crux is fine (I use the crimp, everyone else is all about slot) getting into the jug. 2nd burn I linked it, rest stance to top, after falling. Finally, at the end of my strength and barely holding the flake throw together, I sent it! So did Austin, and Marcel got so close! (we like a heel hook in the flake at the top). Sport N America > … 1 > El Potrero Chico > Surf Bowl
5.12a 7a+ 25 VIII+ 25 E5 6a 130 ● Blue Fin Feb 6, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. Partners: Andre, Austin, Gabi, Marcel Onsight! I think my first 5.12a onsight? Wow it was cool! I thugged my way through the first crux, missing the LHsidepull that Marcel used. I also found a lower kneebar beta that I particularly liked, allowed me to bend backwards and see everything upside down. Rad, would climb again. Sport N America > … 1 > El Potrero Chico > Surf Bowl
5.10d 6b+ 21 VII+ 21 E3 5b 94 ● Trouble at the Border Feb 6, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. Partners: Andre, Austin, Gabi, Marcel Didn't feel like the bulge was the crux? Felt like it was lower in the techy circular crimps. You gotta remember that it's slab. Decent but unmemorable, I think. Sport N America > … 1 2 > Virgin Canyon > Lower Virgin
5.10d 6b+ 21 VII+ 21 E3 5b PG13 252 ● Mugre Mugre Feb 6, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. Partners: Andre, Austin, Gabi, Marcel This one was rad! I got the most awesome toe-down heel jam at the traverse point, milked it for everything it had. Gabi lead it! Sport N America > … 1 2 > Virgin Canyon > Lower Virgin
5.11c 6c+ 24 VIII- 24 E4 6a 249 ● Mexico in Flames Feb 6, 2026 · 1 pitch. Lead / Onsight. Partners: Andre, Austin, Gabi, Marcel Lead the first pitch. Super cool route, crimpy slab climbing. Don't short yourself out by leaving the face at the top! Follow David Fay's photo, I think it would be more fun. Also, clipping bolt 2 from "Mugre Mugre" and pulling the rig directly gives you an extra move or two of fun. Sport 2 pitches N America > … 1 2 > Virgin Canyon > Lower Virgin
5.11d 7a 24 VIII 25 E5 6a 280 ● Don Quixote Feb 6, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. Partners: Andre, Austin, Gabi, Marcel Andre hung the draws on his redpoint burn, and I got on to clean. Awesome feature, I wish I stemmed more! I felt like I didn't get my money's worth cause I was in my head about the social sending pressure. Would do again.
