Life in New York

This is without a doubt the single greatest description of life in New York that I've had the pleasure to read recently. 15 Minute Lunch. The author was blessed to miss out on both a poopy train ride experience as well as garbage day with its mountains of

New Hampshire Ice Climbing

Got some ice climbing pictures for you here. From the first bit of warm-up climbing we did ... Auburn Ice Canyon. The approach sucks a bit - easily a fifteen minute walk (on packed snow), and we never would have found it without the existing tracks to follow.

Frisbee Thieving Microsoft-ee & Mount-freakin'-Foraker
