Southeast Climbing in Fall

It continues to be fabulous climbing weather just about everywhere in the southeast, so climbers and boulderers alike seem to be all smiles. The weather is in that perfect part of the season where you can comfortably climb at any of the Looking Glass areas. Phil and I are considering doing a bit of an "Assault on Looking Glass" and climbing 1 full length route on the South End, the Sun Wall, the North End, Hidden Wall and maybe Cedar (?) in one day? I will keep you posted when and if that happens.

In the meantime, we spent Saturday at Rock Town since we were in Atlanta for a few nights. We have been feeling like we need some steep bouldering to boost our power and Rock Town certainly fit the bill. Sunday afternoon we dispatched Le Pump at the Sun Wall finally, so the "winter" tick list has already shrunk. I hope the party of 3 or 4 that we saw on Tits and Beer made it down safely, as they were still on the crux pitch as the sun was setting(!)

Happy Climbing!
