Peace Out, Ten Sleep!

My time in Ten Sleep couldn't have been better this summer! The people and climbing made this month of June one of my best in years!

Here is one last batch of photos from the trip.

Dog Wash + Independence Day + Friends from Around

The days have really been passing too quickly here in ol' Ten Sleep, Wyoming. It seems the hot weather and some unseasonably high gravity have been making the body-dragging a bit tougher.

We've been supplementing the climbing days with fun activities like dog washes, a non-festival festival, the 4th of July, and more lifestyle shots.

Both dogs are still alive, despite having just experienced the most terrifying, fireworks-rich nights of their lives.

Superratic Wall: Climbing Deluxe

As I've said before, climbing isn't just about climbing. It's also about taking sick lifestyle shots. This can include trips to Worland for groceries.
