Mammoth

I left my heart in Mammoth a few weeks ago and had to go pick it up. Had an awesome time. My skin was jacked so didn't do as much climbing. Did a lot of Fly fishing and site seeing. Met 2 rad dudes, Jeff and Mike. We went to Devils post pilee, which is amazing and so was Rainbow Falls. I did pretty well on Hot Creek with 10 Trout. 8 being 10" to 14".

Way Lake/ Sierras

Got a week off of work and I shot up to the Mammoth and Way Lake for the week. I met up with Ian Cotter-Brown who showed me all around. I worked and got close on Ugly Duckling V9, Natalie V7/8 and Meadow Roof V8. I did Crimp Ladder V7 first go of the second day and did Hosemonster V9. I also got the third ascent of Ian's FA called Down by the River V4 and the Seam V5. On my rest day I Fly Fished Hot Creek and caught a 16" rainbow trout. was verry satisfying. All in all had a blast...
