    The Journal link is not working for me

      I double checked it and it seems to be pointing to the correct URL

    Ya, it works fine. Something is wrong with our Internet at work. I had to use a proxy server to view the link. Time to call Time Warner

    We looked up at the first four pitches when they were working on it two weeks ago. You could see the blue fixed line. It is so amazingly blank.... Good to know that easier pitches and 5.13d can go in the same paragraph! So Wild!!

      Seeing some of the harder pitches on Magic Mushroom in the Progression extras blew my mind...and made me realize I enjoy climbing things with actual holds.

        Not to mention the 10 foot sequence on Mescalito consisting only of thumb gastons. Ridiculous. And that 7 foot dyno is pretty crazy too
