Bouldering- North Carolina

Going to Rumbling Bald in November!

I was wondering if anybody has spent some time there and how they would rate it to other eastern bouldering spots.

I've been there but didn't have a crash pad so was very limited. Many of the problems are pretty high. There are the coolest flat edges there you'll ever see.

Why is it called Rumbling Bald? I have never heard it rumble.

It's the craziest thing and I didn't believe it at first.
I was climbing this chimney near Shredded Wheat and noticed I heard a waterfall but there was not one in site. The waterfall is actually *inside* the cliffline! That is the rumble.

/me bald!!!!!

some of the best bouldering i've ever seen. There is lots of tall stuff and crash pads are definately reccommended. Beats the crap out of Boone bouldering IMO.

Are you talking in code or something rumbling?
That must be a local thing.

is /me supposed to return the users name?

maybe like sometimes /t returns time and /d returns date?
