4-28-10: Seams So

As important as the Merced River Plan is, it is time for a new post. Some of you might be be wondering about the lack of updates recently. I dropped my camera off at a repair shop in October, and the owner skipped town/fell off the face of the earth shortly thereafter. After 6 months of trying to get my camera back, Lyn was nice enough to get me a new one for my birthday. Thanks Lyn!!

Seams So is an obscure problem on the B1 Boulder in the Sentinel Boulders. I hadn't given it much though until recently because I initially thought it finished straight up the scary slab. It turns out that it traverses to the right arete, a much saner option. So if you have already done No Holds Bard and Slapshot, give this one a try.
