From Spain w/ Love - Part 1
Part 1 - The sights.
the love cactus
old castles are everywhere
the world's oldest transporter bridge - built in 1893
the guggenheim at Bilbao
the classy town of Oviedo
ya, that's a big black booty
quite possibly the easiest E8 you'll every climb (seriously, the guidebook gave it an E8 2a rating!)
a typical small village
typical roadside commando camp
typical dinner in a deserted camp ground
as the kind kid would say 'RAIN - a big negative'

10 years in the making
While home for a few days between two international trips, I was lucky enough to find myself slogging up the snowy road of Santaquin Canyon with two friends.
In 1985 Brian Smoot and Bill Robbins established one of the 'hardest' pitches of ice in the Salt Lake area - Angel of Fear. (I'm apprehensive about saying hardest because it seemed quite easy the day i shot it with chris, which was his 3rd ascent in 5 days). It has been rumored to have only fully formed twice since '85, with the last touchdown being 10 years ago. While I'm not sure if i believe this entirely, I do know that it is rare and hasn't been around for the last several years that i've been looking.
This also marks one of my first forays into integrating film with still imagery. While, I'm happy with the results, I still have room for major improvements and look forward to the process of this new (well already here) form of story telling and adventure capturing.
