This blog is intended to motivate and show you what everyone can do to enjoy the outdoors. There is so much more to life then what society gives, and the peace and happiness you find outside is so much more pure and real then the man-made life styles lots of us are tied into these days. Not saying its bad part of the man-made life style, but it really is good for the mind and body to feel the natural part of life as well. Just saying; take advantage of what you have around you that is natural and naturally beautiful and you will feel so much more alive and happy! :)

More J-Tree and Some Bishop Photos <3 

These are some of the last pics I have of the two week climbing adventure I had with my dad and our friend Will. It was such a great two weeks, we had big fires, full days of climbing, trad, multi-pitch, bouldering, and sport climbing, we drove around and explored new places and found some stuff to climb on when the snow has melted. We experienced extreme weather conditions and some intense situations; like brutal wind and cold, black cats hiding in caves right near our camp, tooth aches, and extensive lose of skin. California is such a awesome place, there are endless amounts of thing to do here. 

But anyway, yeah these are the the last of the pics I have of those two weeks with my dad and Will, my dad has tons more, and also a lot of video footage that he is going to turn into a sick movie! he will most likely put the video up on his YouTube account, I will tell you when it is done. Lots of good footage im tellin ya :) 

Miss you dad thanks for climbing with me those two week! It was a blast and I could have been more comfortable with another climbing and belay partner. Love you lots. Next time you come down it will be a little warmer lets hope :) Haha. 

The 60 Foot Woman Traverse! Loads of fun and extremely nice quality rock. We all had a blast on that route. Its great pockets with pumpy moves and good feet. 

This was a really fun climb called the Head Stone 5.8, This is one of Joshua Trees classic routes. We all had a blast on this one two, its cool because once you get on this route you feel like you have been climbing for some time because of the exposure. 

Theres DADA!! High ballin at the happy boulders. Nice work dad way to trust your self enough to push through. Im proud of you, you are an awesome boulderer.
