Climbed Kelso Ridge with some people I met the previous weekend in the San Juans. I haven't had too much class 3 experience, so this was a good start.

Fun Ridge
Pretty sweet, relaxing climb. It's kind of cool to get on the summit and see all the people struggling up the dog route. There will likely be only a few parties on this route making it enjoyable to get away from the masses.

Fun scramble
A very interesting scramble. It is neat to watch all the folks down on the regular trail.
Part of a 12 fourteeners in 6 days spree. Still one of my most favorite ridge climbs.

Did with Grays back in '05.
Did with a group of grad school friends back in 2005. Summited Grays after going over the knife edge to reach Torreys. Roped up for one of the class 4 sections. Fantastic weather!

Late start, storm up high, lots of snow on route. Almost as rough as the last time.

StimulatingI forget the exact date. I went solo and remember interesting and somewhat exposed mixed climbing followed by a 1300-foot glissade from the saddle.
