Thursday Ryan and I went to Windy Point to Climb tower #3 of Rupley Towers. We top roped Bop 'Til You Drop (5.10R). I would really like to lead it, but there are only three or four bolts, the first being twenty plus feet off the ground with two very committing moves. The crux comes at the third bolt, and a fall would put you on to a ledge with a broken ankle. It's horrible to be such a coward.
We climbed both pitches of R3. It is a very fun two pitch 5.8 gear route.

Here is Ryan at the top of the second pitch on R3.

That's me belaying Ryan from the top of R3.

It was getting dark by the time we left.

I like getting the moon in some of these pictures. Someday I am going to learn to take photographs.

I remember R3 well. Great photographs.
You were probably man enough to lead Bop 'Til You Drop though, Ironman.
