Yeah, weather.com says 40 with 60% chance of rain/snow.

It droped by 8 degree in like 2 minutes.
But, I will still go with the "Now cast" once down there. I have been down to many times when the weather was forcast as crap, and ended up with a good or even great day.

I'll agree with you there. Several times I have refused to go b/c of poor conditions and found out that the climbing is superb.

That was the easiest outdoor-to-gym climber conversion ever!

I'm working on Jamen. I'm pretty sure I've got him... did you notice at the Obed he kept mumbling, "It's not as good as RockQuest... These holds would be better if they were plastic..." ?

I have to echo the sentiments on Rock Quest! That was an awesome place. I only had time to get on one wall, but it was demanding and let me know I really need to get back in shape. I ran out of steam too quickly!
Thanks, Chris and staff for making us all feel so welcome. I hadn't been to Cincy for some time. It has really changed since the 60s!
It was great to see everyone, and I'm still not sure who everyone was, but I did come away with a good feeling. I wish I lived closer to a gym. Of course I'm really close to climbing, but no one climbs down here!
And, Yasi, pick me, pick me! I'll come!

48 and rainy isn't that bad.

How much quality climbing are you going to get in on a cold, wet winter day? Train now inside & climb stronger outside when the weather get's better in the spring. Last night @ RQ I climbed 17 routes in a little more than 2 hours. Tony has plenty of challenging routes. One of the leads is so hard that he and several others are projecting it! Justin Riddell has been setting as a guest and has some super routes up too. I couldn't talk about RQ routes w/o mentioning the "Legacy of Lehmkuhl". As the head setter before Tony, Jeff made a significant effort in acquiring new holds, including a number of mongo slopers.
