A long walk seems a lot longer when you want to take photos all the time. And swim and roll in the sand.

Another shitty day in paradise.

Photographing a climber like Jessica is such a great privilege - she's just so rad. Just as psyched to have this shot used by the Access Fund!

@chris_schulte isn't a small dude, that's just a big boulder. Kingslayer size.

I felt the cool climbing temps of spring while sitting on my porch yesterday morning. I felt the excitement of loading gear in the car and my fingertips pulsed when I imagined good friction and pulling on tacky granite. Then I thought "bah, climbing is st

That one time I climbed with this English guy. @blueharg enjoying some tropical conditions up in the 48th parallel.
Truc Allen Media:
It was great to see so many people getting out and enjoying the sunshine and good climbing conditions over the weekend. I lived vicariously through all the posts on my newsfeed while locked up in my studio working on projects...hoping to get out to the ea

Sunshine in the city today has brought the sensation of golden rays on perfect climbing days. John Lyman floats his warmup on the Footless Traverse before a 125+ point birthday challenge day.

Looking forward to escaping back to my hideway in a few weeks for some heaing time.

Son, I can only imagine a couple times that I'm ever going to say its ok to put your hand down the toilet.

When the pilot is your friend. And how I feel on my meds right meow. Rainier is such a tubby volcanoe, yet one of the most majestic mountains in the US. Can't say how much I love it.
Truc Allen Media:
First day of spring. My least favored season for its manic and unpredictable weather. For the rest of you who've been dying from lack of Vitamin D, enjoy the transition. @geros3000 enjoying a perfect morning warmup with an airy, over the water committed
Truc Allen Media:
We've had a lot of rain this year in the northwest, and my newsfeed often reminds me with all my friends groaning about it. While yesterday's day of sunshine did spark some anticipation for dry climbing, I still love the rain. Here's a shot of radman Jess

After the festivities, all the food, the gluttony and sloth, I mustered some motivation for a nostalgic and self-punishing visit to my buddy Scott's place - Sequim's unofficial gym. There's just nothing like a good, old school woody session. Brought me ba

Is it sand or snow? A classic, mildly socked-in day on Rainier.
Truc Allen Media:
In the search for early season turns, we headed to the volcanoes for what we hoped would hold our desires. The first few thousand feet of uphill skiing yielded tricky navigating through a boney boulderfield and creek crossings. We never gave in and kept o

A quiet pause in an otherwise cold and blustery evening from this weekend, celebrating ten years with my favorite person in the world.

Here's to the sun rising another day.

Staying positive and keeping my mind on the things that are most important to me and my sanity: Climbing, photography, and sharing it with friends and those that can relate. @gorisb styling the walls of @verticalworldclimbing, just a warmup for sending .
Truc Allen Media:
Forecasts were looking pretty bleak and expectations were low. The morning was spent climbing through recirculating whiteouts, skinning lightly over rocks and shrubs, and navigating through a somewhat foreign landscape of early season coverage. We sat for

When the weather gives you lemons, you get creative and stay on course. One of my favorite shots from an incredible few days - thanks to those that endured it with me.
Truc Allen Media:
Finding solace with a few friends and pissing sideways rain. Pulling out the @pmirope Synergy today for some super soggy drytooling out at the Pass. I do love the rain, but I'm ready for snow. Hoping the wetness didn't wash away too much snow for Rainier
Truc Allen Media:
When it's raining everywhere and freezing levels are at 10k, it seems a perfect time for the pre-night, early-season, shit-show-scramble to go play with sharp things on ropes.

The world is full of amazing people. I met him in a parking lot at a local music shop last week when he recognized me from some events I'd emceed. We chatted about punk music and he later gave me his demo cd. A couple days later I coincedentally met him

This morning my wife said I looked like I needed some outdoor rehabilitation. And then suggested maybe I should go skiing both days this weekend. And then my head exploded. Looking forward to the thick of the season. Brad Cory dips out of the whiteroom

A week ago I went out for a laid back day with some friends and also test some new gear. I was thinking that maybe I'd stop and take a few shots of the fall colors while I was at it. I quickly decided to bail when faced with the challenge of navigating th

It's pretty cool when you know people. Especially when you can get your son some free coaching from the venerable Alex Fritz.
