Guys...

I know its been a while... but these past few months have been real tough. It seems I'm still adjusting to work on the weekends and school throughout the week, and its been hard for me to find time to climb midst it all. But guys, that all changes today.

Today, I found out about how radical The EDGE up in halfmoon is. The new gym is in the final stages of construction, with a tentative opening date of Nov. 14th, and I for one could not be more stoked.

Just walking through the building, seeing the walls and that one crazy-ass boulder sent chills down my spine, and the thought of being able to set with seemingly endless holds, creating limitless sequences and problems and routes... I was nearly certain my head would explode.

I'm gonna make a few trips back to that wonderful place a few times this week, with a comprehensive post on the new routes, the people setting them, and the gym itself! STOKED ON IT!!!!!!

For now, here's some media on the whole project:




I don't know about you guys, but I'm on the EDGE right now.

Hopefully some real rocks will also make their way into my life soon aswell!

-WB

    JP, glad to see your psyched again and making the necesaary adjustments to balance all of the hectic aspects of day to day life and climbing. Murph and I had a blast setting new boulder problems and climbing with you and Evan yesterday! We have to do it again...i'll try to get a media update posted later tonight.

    WB,

    My name is Ben Smith and I have been working on a new project called The Backcountry Journal. I would be interested in you guest authoring over on my site. I know my readers would be all over your photography and your writing is smooth and very enjoyable. Let me know what you think. Shoot me an email over at editor@thebackcountryjournal.com.

    Thanks for your time.

    Ben

    where's the comprehensive list of routes and setters? Where's any updates at all? College starts soon young man, you gotta learn how to multi task! Can't give the masses a paragraph or two once or twice a week?

    BTW, flashed one of your V8's at the gym and failed miserably on one of your V6's...man I love bouldering. Overall, I think the new boulder problems and routes are really fun and challenging. Keep up the good work, lots of possibilities in the new gym.
