9:18 a.m.: Finding a project that exceeds your expectations and pushes you to your best efforts is very rare. I felt lucky to witness this process as Humboldt County climber Nic Sabo @sic.nabo worked out the free sequences on the second pitch of Blackbeard's Tears (5.11 A2) at Promontory, California. This pitch checks in around 5.13b and is one of the steepest continuos finger cracks I've seen. The full link up to the top of the crag will be the hardest naturally protected climb on the California Coast and among the hardest crack climbs in the state. #californiaclimber #asca #californiaclimbermag #climber #climbing #tradclimbing #crackclimbing #rockclimbing #escalada #grimper #escalade #isofunus #california #lastlight #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #californiacoast #freeourcoast #splitter #outside #aacgram #farnorth #humboldtcounty

11:59 a.m.: 3.27.16 "It just happens, and all happenings are mutually interdependent in a way that seems unbelievably harmonious." -Alan Watts: The Book on the Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are Realizing everything depends on everything has been huge in my life. I now realize that without the dark, there is no such thing as light. Without sadness, there is no happiness. Learn to appreciate the good along with the bad. It's amazing how a change of perspective can improve situations. Balance really is key. #balanceiskey #healthyliving #happylife #alanwatts #ShelterCove #HumboldtCounty
