Bouldering in Bishop is done
I split my index finger open yesterday on "Evilution". I have never split a tip this bad. I was having such a great day. I did the crux on "Center Direct" and almost sent, then tried "Mandala", "La Bellet", and last "Evilution". "Evilution is so cool, I made it to the second to last hold right away but I could feel pain in my finger and noticed blood on every hold. When I looked at my finger I realized my time bouldering in the Buttermilks was over.
I am going to Crested Butte today to visit my friend Katie. This weekend I will meet up with friends from Minnesota for some sport climbing in Spearfish Canyon, SD before coming back to Minneapolis.
The tall boulder in the photos is "Jedi Mind Tricks".
