It's been a warm, dry spring, so Mark and I got our first trip to Vedauwoo of 2009 about a month earlier than usual!

The main area is still closed, we parked for free outside the gate

The gates is still closed, but the snow drift is plowed

No trace of snow on the main area

Looking up at Walts Wall and the Coke Bottle

How I missed the warm, pink granite in 'voo

I'm hoping for a little sun on my pasty white skin

Looking across the Coke Bottle from the base of Ed's Crack

A few people are out enjoying the warm, sunny rock

Mark getting geared up for our day

A gorgious view of the Mummies from the base of the climb

Two new ropes and a new sling on the cam!

Looking up at Mark on top of the first pitch of Ed's Crack

Chris rope-soloing 4th of July crack

Chris sits on top of the main area.

New ropes and a new Reverso!

Looking up at the second pitch of Ed's Crack

New, not so shiny ropes, after the climb

Mark tries to flake two ropes at once.

View of the Nautalis and beyond from the top of Ed's

Distant plains and mountains

Summit shot! On top of Ed's

So high, I can see the curvature of the earth

Big Wyoming skies

Double rope raps freak me out, so I make huge beefy knots

Looking out over the round granite of Vedauwoo

Turtle rocks

The main area as some sprinkles move in

Blair looks pretty snow free too

I love the Vedauwoo landscape

Monday's weather was a bit different
