I saw Tony Lamiche a few times out at LRC cleaning up some "future" projects. He sent at least one ca$$$h problem that the locs have been trying for years. Photo below isn't it, but it is V12---"Dragon Slayer".
Kudos.

"Little Rock City"--the "other" LRC. They are renaming it "The Stone Fort" to lessen the confusion...however, that (Stone Fort) is also a state park up near Murfreesboro...
Still miles of rock in 'bama, Snake. Sick stuff...probably a few more bolts than when you were there last. There was a Liz Claiborne (prana) ad with Sierzant in the Colliseum a few months ago in some mag. Insane southern stone...

Jesus, ain't that the truth (do the rambo hang)! Drop a line if you're down. I pad up the LRC (boulders) a lot. Always willing to head up to the Red, too. Need some enduro work for those ancro clips though!
"Rocky Top"!

Yeah, it's good stuff. Thank goodness Montlake (Golf Course) is cool with climbing.
We lost another fine area near Ooltewah a year or two ago (landowner is a prick) but Pot Point will more than make up for it if people get out there enough.
Some secret stash boulders near T-Wall, too, according to "Centerfold" (check out the new Urban Climber)...

Montlake Country Club is super good. Lamiche did a project on the most beautiful (gray and cracked) face at the Back Nine that looks so incredible but very hard.
