skihill bouldering Sunday

Postby cory » Thu Aug 31, 2006 4:05 pm

Sunday, this long weekend, I'm planning on going bouldering at the skihill in Welsford. Plan is to put up some new problems as well play on the existing stuff. Does anybody want to join me or are all you suckas playin with strings?

wow you missed out... we (Tom A, too) put up some new easy lines, cleaned 4 boulders, then explored and found the two biggest boulders (so far) in welsford. 4-5 faces on each one, 14 feet high, gently overhanging, flat landings, flat top/mantle topouts, minimal cleaning needed, but definitely virgin rock!

Goin' back this weekend to send and look for more...

I would by my gf is in town so I am thinking of actually going to Balds Peak and get her 'on the rope' It does sound like fun and we should get out climbing before that white stuff falls though.

Tyler,

'Twas good... Natascha & I cleaned a good part of Flotsam, and put up 3 problems. Nothing hard, but one in particular stands out; an arete with big sidepulls/crack that you sort of lieback. "Shoulda Learned To Play The Guitar, V1"

Explored a bit, and managed to determine the proximity to other boulders..I'm starting to know my way around now.

I'd like to head back, as would Natascha, and Hummer is keen too. Maybe this weekend?

I would be up for that, although I work (normally) until 600. But I can come in a hour early and work through lunch and be on the road shortly after 400. That work with you?
