Boulderers: The elusive class of climber?
|
Hey all, |
|
r/bouldering is fairly active |
|
Thanks Jon. |
|
Hey, I just moved out of the Fort Collins area so unfortunately I can't help ya but I will reference you to the NCCC (northern colorado climbers coalition) free guidebooks that they keep on their website |
|
Leo, thanks. I've actually already downloaded that guide, but finding the problems is still occasionally tricky. I also recently bought the Falcon Guide: Bouldering Colorado, or something like that. |

Us boulderers are an elite group of athletes. We have a super secret forum where everyone gathers. Daniel woods and Paul Robinson have daily journals on if. The website name can only be found etched into the top of v12 problems. That's the only way to gain access into the undergound forum, you have to send a v12. |
|
Moved to FOCO in July. Just head up to Horsetooth or Carter - you will meet people. There is a meetup group that boulders once a week and a lot of new folks cycle through it. |

Seems a lot of the discussion on here is about various pieces of gear and the best ways to use them, so for a boulderer there's not much along those lines to discuss |

Ground up vs top down brushing on new problems? |
