The jug on Syncronicity

I didn't want to go here, but I must. That is the issue with climbing at the red, where endurance is of way more importance than technique. At technique crags, you'll will find more unique moves/grips..whereas at the red...it is..well, you know the story.

this is definitely not a slam..just an observation. one hold I remember was on buff the wood...the little penis sticking out..I think it is broke now....and how about heart shaped box?

no no.. it's over. my glory is dead.. along with my spirit. i'll quitely sulk into the shadows..

I'm a big fan of the Super Pinch on the same route at Solar Collector, and I like the mono on Dave the Dude better than the flake, but my personal favorites are the lay down ledges on The Return of Chris Snyder. Just when you're pumped beyond belief, there by the grace of God are two little napping spots (if you don't mind the choss).

all of the "flakes" on Hot September

i like that african shaped hold next to africa. but you only really use that for a foot hold...

mississippi moon did have quite the rad hold. i guess those solar collector giant hueco routes will have to do for now.

do you guys climb anywhere but the red?

no...no one on this site has ever climbed anywhere but the red river gorge...hence the name of the site...other climbing areas exist?

yes.. but this site is (mostly) about the red. hence, redriverclimbing.com.
