Wednesday, December 22, 2010. A few from Hueco. Here's a couple pics from a day on North Mountain, Hueco's been a little warm but it's hard to complain about the best winter weather to be found.

maxwell silver: September 2010

Sunday, September 26, 2010. Shortly after returning from Oregon this spring I wandered up to the top of the Guillotine and rapped in for a solo inspection. I felt stronger on the moves and slowly pieced together a sequence through the crux. The next step was to borrow a power drill and make it lead-able. This process proved to be unexpectedly difficult. In the end it took two trips with the bolt gun to prep the route in a way that satisfied my desire for safety while not “over-bolting.”. My snowshoe catc...

maxwell silver: June 2010
http://maxhasson.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 23, 2010. Despite the dampest spring I've seen up here we've still managed to climb some rocks. Temps are well below the summer highs but it's been warm enough to shift the focus from the pebbles to the cliffs. A couple weeks ago Jessica, Drew and I met up with Jens in Oregon for a brief but sweet trip to Smith Rocks. While I grabbed an extra rope and some brushes for an investigation of the Dagoba System. Like many plans however, ours changed. Did I mention the late start? We did the sta...

Tuesday, March 1, 2011. Rare photo of myself by Creg Phares. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Travels and Tribulations of Blake Herrington. Next Step Climbing Clinics in WA. If you are stuck on a plateau in your climbing, want to get faster and lighter on multipitch climbs, hone your crack technique, or prep for some larger alp. The Flash and The Sunrise. My snowshoe catches an alder bush and I stumble into the blinding white. Scared and confused, I catch my balance just as the flash recedes. Here is an in de...

Thursday, April 15, 2010. The Life and Climbs of Charlie Barrett: Chapter 38 - Cremation of Care. Charlie offered to try and repeat the problem, which he dubbed Cremation of Care. Friday, April 2, 2010. The Last Night in Peshastin. After the Icicle's icicles all fell down we still found some fun at the elusive elevation between spring rains and winter powder snow. Eventually this too became water and the rock started to dry. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The Life and Climbs of Charlie Barrett: Chapter 38.

Saturday, February 6, 2010. All photos taken from the surprisingly small helicopter seen below. Wally, our most excellent pilot, escorted us from the quaint fishing village of Petersburg, AK directly to the Burkett Boulder Base Camp (BBBC? This water crossing necessitated the donning of bright orange inflatable vests. Entering the glaciated madness, I was struck by the wild patterns in the ice. We got an incredible view of the infamous NW Face of the Devil's Thumb, not in good shape on the day we arrived.

Saturday, August 27, 2011. I've decided to move shop over to Wordpress, so if anyone is still looking at this site wondering what the hell I'm doing I'm relieved to share that I've motivated to post a new blog, and it can be found HERE.

Saturday, May 1, 2010. We've been busy this week, hitting the trails and starting to build some fitness for the summer season. Jens and Sol were lined up for another attempt at their " L-Town 15. Sol wandering up the first pitch. Myself trying not to fall onto the precarious block hidden around the corner, fourth pitch. Traversing off of the pedestal, pitch five. Serious nut-tool gardening was required to utilize the crack I'm in. Jens under the gnar (top) and Sol getting his aid on, aka survival mode.
