Just a note, I'll be up there on Saturday, the 19th of March, then heading to the Natural History Museum in Balboa Park to see the Banff Film Festival at 1900 that evening. The tickets are only $12, or $15 at the door. A-16 is sold out for Sat. and Sun. but the museum may still have a few left. They had (5) left for Saturday on Monday. That'll make it a full day for me...should be good!

Alright - a post from Mr. bvb. Hope things are going well.
I can't help but think of you guys every time I make it up there. Good times, good people. I come up with a problem name and the people it really targets have all moved on - bummer. Man, sometimes it makes me feel old. Probably because I am.
Yup, do that training thing and show up. I'd make it there for that appearance.
From what I see, it's pretty cool. Lots of problems that were probably neglected for years now have fairly frequent attempts/sends. Quite a few young guns running around from the appearances of it. Kind of restores faith.
A Woodson renaissance. That has a nice ring to it.

Spent Mon-Wed at Woodson and it was great to be back on the mountain. Put up some more climbs in the Sherwood forest area (Down below Hard as Nails just left of the fire road before the hairpin) Very good area with easy access. The boulder in the picture has routes up the middle of the face and the left and right arete. All very good. Around to the left of this face is a right to left leaning crack (visible from the road) and an arete to the left. The second picture (boulder just before Little John) is a great leaning crack with bad feet, another problem just left of the start, and a good crack to the left of that.
Here's one that probably has not seen alot of traffic recently. It may now with a new bolt on top, the old one was untrustworthy. Very good.

The guy sketched on the slab just above the overhang and landed perfectly in the center of the Mondo. Not even that high. Said he thought he broke something and did. Real bummer.

Tibia (anterior aspect; front of the leg), Fibula (posteriolateral; back/side of the leg), a Tib/Fib fx if both are broken, as we would say in the medical field...a little Anatomy 101 for ya Johnny (wink).
Sucks to be that guy!

What are the dates for the "gathering" again? Isn't it right around the corner?
I know, but I'm too lazy to search.

it matters what's under the pad.
dirt is usually dramatically softer than asphalt.
asphalt is usually a bit softer than granite.
psychologically, it's also a lot easier to roll if your runout is on dirt rather than asphalt.

Darrell, March 19 & 20, Sat/Sun. Again, last I checked (yesterday) there were still tickets avail. For the Banff Film Festival, at the Natural History Museum in Balboa Park, for Sunday. I figured it would be a cool way to end a day/weekend of climbing. Ill be going Saturday night at 7pm.
