Sick shot Friend! and good eye.
WO BLR!.... that's very rude
but uhh..
what kind of rate are we talking?
boulderkitty: amicks' got some old topos that I can send you online in PDF's.
SD climbing guidebook contains information of sorts- but you'd have to buy it.
some other topos I could send you/point you too as well. feel free to pm me.
or yes I will be on the hill April 14/15 and would happily point some things out.

Hey Jonathan,
Within the past five years or so, I too, put a TR on Digitsdelight, after having been away from it for many years, and walked pretty much through it. But when I came to the top out, I stopped and tried to envision myself up there without a rope and said, I must have been nuts!

I've got the So Cal bouldering guide. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't a newer book out. I also got some great topos from a fellow ST member. So psyched to check out Woodson in a few weeks!

next saturday mob scene on the hill! If any local yokels have old ropes still suitable for TR, get them to me sometime next week or bring them early sat morning. My idea is to hang ropes on a bunch of stuff and leave them there for anyone to use all day.
Robbins, painted, uncertainty, jaws, digits, seminar, control tower, MS, hmt, im willing to run around and do the setup, but need ropes. Help would be nice too.
email me

Thanks to those of you who gave positive response to my request for ropes and help. Me n epps will be going up the hill between 8-9 to hang a bunch of trs. Anyone who wants to join us and help out, just show up. If you have any old crabs, slings or rope pieces that will help too.
We would like to have ropes hanging on at least a dozen routes for open usage all day. If you dont want to come early thats ok too, but its gonna be a good time, so be there or be square.

Ron, just picked up a bunch of ropes yesterday, like 5, 40 foot lengths, so perfect for a lot of the play ground stuff.

Had fun saturday with the folks who decided to come out, which werent many.
People like to talk about how fun the last get together was, then when the opportunity to do it again comes up it seems everybody suddenly has something better to do.
I never thought climbers would be so peer dependent. If this guy is coming then that guy will come too, and if he comes, so will this other guy, and when enough of those guys sign on it becomes ok for everybody else to show up. The problem is that this guy isnt going to commit before he knows if that guy is coming, and because nobody has the balls to just say "I will be there" they all stay home and watch cartoons instead.
Really? Are we climbers or socialites? Whatever. Some good people did turn up and we had alot of fun despite the intermittant rain, and got a firsthand demonstration of how fast the rock dries at woodson, even in overcast weather. A totally wet boulder can be dry enough to climb in less than a half hour.
My personal highlight was to be on the hill with one of my bestest buds Greg Epps again, climbing those familiar boulders like we have so many times in the past. James Barnett came all the way down from Bishop, another longtime san diego homeboy back on the home boulders. The young guns were well represented and full of energy as usual. Horvath worked me good (as usual) by asking to see my new trail wayyy down the hill (you know Im not gonna say no to that), and Johnny Weinberg was cranking everything in sight (as usual) and went scoping for new routes with us too.
Thanks everybody, i had a great time.

Thanks Horvath, and nice shot Doug. I just looked at that seam and shook my head... you guys are shredding hard! I've bumped into Mark and Lauren a couple times and Doug once - always super positive vibes from you guys. That's where it's at. Doug, you were working on Greg's Crack that day - did you manage to get it yet?
QUESTION for Woodson locals - i've tried to find the Y Crack twice now, no luck. Thrashed my way up to what I thought was it, sort of an inverted Y looking crack maybe 50 yards from the dirt road, above and right from the reservoir. But, up close, it didn't look right. Can anyone point me in the right direction, or better yet, post a photo of it? Thanks.

Wow, I walked right by this boulder, thinking the route was the prominent crack on the boulder just to the north.
Thanks ATS, that is great beta. Google is amazing.
