Summary

The Bend
Union breaks’ over – get back to work!
A quick day outing to The Bend in Tieton with friends. We’ve been so unmotivated & generally adrift after coming back from Jordan that unless motivation knocks on our door at 6am on a Saturday, odds are excellent that we’ll end up doing plastic shit…This time motivation did knock (right on time) & we enjoyed a day of climbing warm basalt cracks and socializing with Lauren, Justin and Ye. The thought of fighting crowds and an occasional a-hole at Smith or Trout makes me want to vomit but Tieton has been pretty appealing to me lately…probably just a fad.

Cruel Harvest (5.9), Tiers (5.9), Salmon Song (5.10a), The Reckoning (5.10b), and Ye put up CIA (5.11b).
