We were in the Uintas last weekend for a family reunion, so we decided to scramble up Murdock Mountain off Bald Mtn. Pass before we headed home.

Climbed a really dirty crack up Left Hand Fork with Dad yesterday.

Oregon Trip

Spent the second to last week of July in Oregon with Laurie and her family. The scenery did not disappoint, and we had a great time. Day time highs were in the mid- 60's (along the coast), and it was a great escape from our heat wave.
