“Climbing at Castle Hill is like monogamy, perhaps it seems counter-intuative, but ultimately it’s much more satisfying”

“The finest quality of this stone, these plants and animals, this desert landscape is the indifference manifest to our presence, our absence, our coming, our staying or our going. Whether we live or die is a matter of absolutely no concern whatsoever to the desert.”

Edward Abbey – Desert Solitaire

“It seems to me that the strangeness and wonder of existence are emphasized here, in the desert, by the comparative sparsity of the flora and fauna: life not crowded upon life as in other places but scattered abroad in spareness and simplicity, with a generous gift of space for each herb and bush and tree, each stem of grass, so that the living organism stands out bold and brave and vivid against the lifeless sand and barren rock. The extreme clarity of the desert light is equaled by the extreme individuation of desert life-forms.”

Incredible Hand Crack

IHC is perfect hands, perfect 5.10 on laser cut desert sandstone in a movie set landscape of rattle snakes, turkeys, bats and dust devils. A landscape where you can see to the horizon and almost feel like you could see beyond.

 

 

 

 

How to make a wax bomb

1. Remove any articles from wax, such as wicks.

2. Find a suitable container and put the wax in it (old baked beans cans are good, the bigger the better).

3. Place can on a strong heat source like a camping stove (not the stove element inside your house).

4. Heat until the wax melts into a clear liquid.

5. Get ready with a small amount of water, about a shotglass worth per couple of candles.

6. When the wax starts to combust, popping small flames, crouch nearby and tip in the water.

7. Jump out the way. For a big bomb you’ll need to attach your water vessel to the end of a long stick.
