James Canyon Forest Freshies

Project. One line out an otherwise featureless roof, the landing out the ending takes a big drop off the edge of a small cliff. 

Mostly jugs at the Cliffside Roof, the topouts are just over the edge of a nice 15 -20 ft drop.

Kelly Canyon

While some of the limestone roofs can get a bit greasy during warm summer months...the sandstone overhangs of Kelly Canyon offer a great change of pace . Textured rock, unique style of movement and plenty of shade can be easily found here, as well as a few sick highball lines.

Hinterlands go up in Smoke

A smoky sunset on the peaks. The Slide Fire burned over 21,000 acres before being contained

Just inside the upper northwest corner of the fire perimeter is Casner Cabin Draw, home  of Choss, Moss, and Renegade Roof 

Thick smoke doesn't slow this crazy bastard down
