Escape From The Blobs
 
Yesterday I did the second ascent of Choss Origins.  Choss Origins is the original line not completed on Choss Roof.  It was a drop off problem that ended on the diving board feature of the Cashin Out exit.  Sorry old timers, but the line tops out.  Choss Origins is an ultra classic, and a contender for one of the best problems in the state.  I have been working on Escape From The Blobs (exit #2) and The Kraken as well.  It's October which means that it is climbing season.  Hopefully fall temps will arrive soon.  I started climbing a decade ago in October 2002, and I'm still as psyched (possibly more) than when I started climbing in the gym back in Dallas.
