Malibu climbing

We are spending the last few days of the team training camp in the Santa Barbara area, and today we climbed a bit farther south, in the Malibu area. Amazing climbing right off the ocean - from the Pacific Coast Highway, take your pick of canyons to climb! We climbed Latigo Canyon (see the picture below) and Mullholland Canyon (picture below of Barney cruising up - he makes it look so easy!), both about 2,000-2,500 feet of climbing. And tomorrow we end our trip with a climb up Gilbraltar Road (an hour-long climb) in Santa Barbara - excellent way to finish our trip!

All told, we should have about 30,000 feet of climbing under our belts from this trip - now we'll be ready to tackle the 5 minute climbs back home!
