A couple of days ago, the crew headed to Castle Rock, confident that it wouldn't rain like the previous 3 trips to the area. It was a good session and nice to get to actually boulder there. The problems we worked included Yabo's Roof, The Swim, Kauk Roof, and Hueco Wall. Anyway, the moTown shoWdowN is less than a week away. Everyone is invited, so feel free to stop on by for an awesome session!

The wall is done! Brodie has completed the awesome bouldering wall pictured in one of the posts below. To celebrate this momentous event, Brodie will be hosting a party to "break in" the finished project. This will take place on September 3 at about noon. Brodie just placed a huge order of holds with So ill and plans on secretly setting as many problems as possible, so there will be plently of new problems for everyone. There is some talk of possibly having a small competition, but if not, an awesome session is for sure to take place. For more details, contact Brodie, Daniel, or myself.

Yesterday, Brodie and I checked the 1st annual Bear Valley Bouldering Competition held at Hell's Kitchen. Hell's Kitchen is located just off the side of highway 4 right before entering Bear Valley. The area was somewhat developed, but also had many projects. The comp was fun, laid back, and set up well. By the end of the day 11 new FA's had been put up, two of them by Brodie. I took 3rd place and Brodie threw down and grabbed the top spot. All in all it was a good comp and I would definately have to say that those who didn't come missed out and should consider checking it out next year.

The other day I was chillin' and thinkin about some of my old projects. One that kept coming up was the Triple Cracks problem in Columbia. It's definately a five star problem with awesome moves. The last time I tried it had been almost a year ago, so I decided to head out solo and send it. My plan was successful and after a handful of tries, I finally stuck the last big move out left and sent it.
Here's a picture of me on Triple Cracks from last year.
