if you're sworn to secrecy, why are you spraying how great morehead is and how bad the bouldering in the Red is? Wouldn't you just not say anything and let everyone stay in the Red?

bouldering at the red is like bouldering at the red...
friction slab...4 cool slab lines..on the other side..
bull dog-
..just as good of problem as anything anywhere..(its just harder when its wet)...
imgoingtotailand-
to the right sent 2 summers ago of bull dog..find super small edge for right foot, backstep hit crimp and mantle..try it over and over till u stick..hard, frustrating simple..
Coffee shop, JR's problem way to the right
Secret Garden
is just as good as any cliff band bouldering..
watch tower is very good, technical, Haas, yes looks hard- yet once figured out it stays easy, doesnt stay hard like some problems..very good problem..
bouldering at the cove..
okay..this place is good..anything there
the junk yard..
Tbone traverse..gobstopper...nice rocks..
skybridge ridge..good problems..
pearl..the fonz..double healix...also the inhibitor is good
peace out

Had a blast freezing my ass off at Clack Saturday. Saw lots of deer hunters in the valley on the North side of the road. Got one more move into my project there. Thanks Don for making me get on it the last time I was there!

Had a super cool time Sunday. After driving past the "packed in like sardines" parking area for Skybridge we decided to hit Tower. I almost stuck my first outdoor dyno and really worked my tips on the iron rails.

Whoever came up with the idea for hothands in the chalk bag is one smart cookie.

Another killer weekend in NC, no doubt. Thanks to Buster for the super cool place to crash and for showing us around.

I didn't take to many pics, but here are a few:

Everything hurts today. It even hurts to type. Great weekend for sure. Cant wait till next one.

Oh yeah, there is no bouldering in Morehead, stay in the Red for your bouldering fix :)

Bouldering pictures always look like humans trying to have sex with big rocks. :P

There is bouldering in the red and while it isnt first class it is still fun. I that you have to approach bouldering here with no expectations and you will be rewarded. The few gems are fun but I think I will stick with routes until I just have to have another one day diversion.
