Rumbling Bald Bouldering

Last Saturday's cool temps and mediocre forecast sent us packing crash pads and heading to Rumbling Bald. You usually find us climbing on ropes one way or another, but when the days are short and/ or particularly cold, we often dust off our lonely crash pad. We headed to the Cereal Boulders and had a good time until the rain forecast for 3:00 set in just after noon.

We headed out for another Hoffmann rarity- a Saturday afternoon spent watching football. Still, we were pretty surprised to see the Rumbling Bald parking lot completely full. My worries that a rain cloud had set in only on our area where squelched as we backed out of our spot and saw a stream of climbers and boulderers heading to their cars in our rear view mirror. This Rumbling Bald season promises to be busy rain or shine!
