Back In Da Hood
So the southeast is pretty fucking awesome. And scary. I asked one of my friends back at school if he'd ever been in a backwoods town in the south. He said that, as a black person, he would go no where near such a place. Let me tell you, just being a northerner is spooky. Anyhow, that said, the climbing was great, and I didn't want to come back to work and the snowy white north. I am pleased/scared to see that it's sunny and in the 50's. Guess on my one non-full work day a week we'll have to get out and send. W3rd. Chris has lots of pics, which hopefully he'll post up soon. I sent 115 new problems in the course of 9 days of climbing, I've got nothing to complain about. And the rest of the crew sent really strong too. It was a very fun trip.
pirate kansas 5 days left.
this is a crosspost.
Arkansas is AMAZING. With only 5 days left, I regret that I've seen so little of the rock this state has to offer ... which at the same time is SO MUCH rock. At a gorgeous local (access sensitive) area, there is more rock than a crew of the strongest climbers could develop in a lifetime (a mere 20 minute drive from where I have been staying, in Dardanelle.) An hour and a half away is the town of Jasper and the Horseshoe Canyon Ranch and surrounding areas (Busby Hollow, Low Gap, The Zone, and other areas.) I hadn't been sending many hard problems on the trip (coming close to lots, but sending nothing hard) until this Sunday. I did a problem at Low Gap called Brass Knuckles. The first photo I've posted here is of Brass Knuckles. The other photos are of another problem on the same boulder, named Bloody Knuckles, which goes at V12 supposedly.
I am having too great a time and I don't want to go back to New York.
