speaking of RRG in the winter..how is the Red in Feb/March?

Variable. Some weekend nice, others cold. Er, relativly cold. It all seems warm compared to New Bruswick, I'll wager.

yes...good wager. I love climbing in 30ish weather as long as the sun is out.

is it warmer than that?

Kentucky can stay in the teens for weeks at a time. It gets cold here around Feb/March but a four-hour drive down south is all it takes to find good climbing weather. Bouldering in Alabama and Georgia is prime time in the winter.

What other places make a good destination that time of year?

Oh, and I'll need a partner, too.
So, If you want to come with me, wherever I'm going, shoot me a PM.

I might be able to hook up with you at Horse Pens Forty on the 26th or so for a few days (not the whole 1 1/2 weeks, though). There's a very good chance I will be in Atlanta on the 22nd visiting family. HP40 is about 2 hours from my Dad's house and I can only take so much hanging around there.
