Finally!!!!!!!

Lincoln Lake boulders from Josh Mitchell on Vimeo.

Here's a short of Ian and myself up @ the recently(and continually) developed area up Mt. Evans road. Ian actually flashed "Small Arms" our first day down there....twice actually, on his first go I was too close so when his feet cut on the last move he slightly kicked my shoulder. Ian was pissed for half a second, then casually did it again. His first day down there and he was able to make short work of both "Unshackled's"(easy and hard v10 respectively) and followed it up by flashing this v11, which was actually considered v12 by more than a few local bad-asses. Look for many more accomplishments from young Ian as I'm sure he'll soon be adding some proud ascents to a resume that already includes v13 and 5.14b(Circadian Rhythm & F'd in the A @ Ten Sleep). I'd also like to say Thanks to Dave, Daniel, Jamie, Jon G., Carlo, Ryan S., Max, and everyone else who's put time and energy into the development of such a great bouldering area. See ya around!
