http://tomgrundyman.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html

I've been pretty negligent with the blog. As mentioned elsewhere. Eric walking the waterline like a boss. One of our classes on the dome. I support Liz in foot to hand in the pool at high camp (Eric Ward Photo). Climbing at Lover's Leap - the horizontal dikes are just begging to be climbed. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).
