A friend was climbing on the pocketed rhyolite of Penitente Canyon in central Colorado last weekend, and on Sunday morning he (and everyone else in the canyon) discovered that an Easter bunny who climbs 5.10 had secreted colored eggs in some of the huecos and pockets on popular routes. Pretty funny. My friend's reaction? "The damned egg was blocking the hold and I couldn't clip!"

Book Sale
Sadly, my book is now out of print. I have a few brand-new copies that I will sign and send for $50, including postage. (They're currently over $100 on Amazon.) Click on "my complete profile" above for contact info. I hope to find a new publisher to bring out a second edition, but this could be it.
