Had a great session of bouldering near Mount Hood recently. Although I am, by no means the first to boulder at these spots, I have met some climbers who have sporadically traveled to these areas but most have left them forgotten and overgrown a bit in the past few years. I have been fortunate […]
Boulder Mountain and Lost City This week me, Jess, Mia and Khloe got out to explore some of the fantastic, pocketed rock at this area that is located about a half mile from another group of boulders I posted about about recently.

This area […]

We estimate the book will be out by early summer and have nearly 500 pages of color goodness: topos, routes, pictures, and info on a lot of bouldering areas […]
