The Summer is fast approaching and the opportunity for us to experience some new and exciting adventures/ideas are in motion.
We struggled to get the sand boarding underway, but we promise that this will be posted at some point.
I guess the most recent activity we have document was bouldering at Carver. Nothing to crazy, went there after work on Thursday and explored the area as well as sending some routes.
One of the harder routes of the day was a route we named Careers & Kids, rating it a V4, this route had some tricky moves. The difficulty of this route wasn't so much the moves but the area where the route was located.
Situated on top of 3 or 4 other boulders, access to this problem was quite difficult to get to. with very little area to start the route. Crevices on all sides of the boulder dropping about 20ft to the forest floor added a tingling sensation in some areas of the body. The picture won't do it justice at all.
Connor put together this sick sequence of the problem
Trip was successful except for 1 minor thing... Connor broke out with Poison Ivy a few days later.If you make your Carver watch out for that killer P.I. and also watch out for Edward from Twilight.

Aaron, is that you in the picture? The photograph/composite is sick - as is the climbing. Very cool stuff.
ReplyDeleteHow about you guys head down to denver for a weekend and hit some of the boulder flatirons, Garden of the Gods (which Kevin Kozik and I climbed around on years ago) and some other areas? We've got a big basement with comfy couches and a bedroom...
