Coopers Rocks, WV

West Virginiaaaaa, mountain Mama, take me home!


Dave and I hit up Coopers for 2 days of high-balling, finger crunching, bad landing, crimpfest bouldering that was one for the ages.

4 hours a day at that place will definatly drain you, if the 3 hour drive from DC doesn't.  You're driving next time Dave.

I sequenced the V3 'Street Fighter' below.

Rocks and Colorado update



Having hit the premier Maryland area, Rocks State Park, I got to try out another bouldering problem called 'Moby Dick'.

She's a beut.  V5 stand start.

A couple trys and it sent.  

Off to Colorado and higher elevations.
