Cortney and I went to the Sky Valley this weekend for some fun boulderin' action. Saturday's highlight was heading out to the Five Star Boulder, where I managed to send Ebriosity first try of the day. Nice job me! We had a lot of fun hanging out with Isaac, John Stordahl, and others, and climbing on some of the fantastic climbs on the boulder. It was Isaac's first day at the boulder, and he climbed super well, sending Ross Bongo, the Five Star Arete, Kombucha, and doing well on Ground Zero and Ebriosity. Nice job Isaac! Nice job Cortney and John too!
We spent Saturday night with some friends in Index, and awoke to the unfortunate sound of rain falling on the roof. After a really slow morning drinking coffee and watching climbing movies, we headed up into the woods surrounding Midnite to look for more boulders with our friend Chris Henson. We spent a ton of time bushwhacking through serious undergrowth, but did uncover some real gems. Many of the boulders we found showed evidence of a wire brush, and some may have even been previously climbed, but there are a few lines that will require lots of landing work. It was really encouraging and I am looking forward to spending time unlocking the sequences these beautiful rocks will offer! Stay tuned for more...
