Carabiners, New Bedford, MA 10/25

Although we had to cancel our outdoor climbing plans due to the serious rain storm approaching, we made the most of the day by attending a not-so-local competition.

Ben, Luke and I made the long drive down to New Bedford for the Carabiner's comp. The 12 hour day was well worth it, as we all come home with victories, great prizes, and a fun day together.

Ben climbed very strong, finishing 1st in the Advanced category and with the 3rd highest score of the day. Luke took 1st place in his Youth B category and I took 1st in the Intermediate category.

The gym was enormous and was showcasing their brand new feature, a 14 foot boulder, which added about 1200-1300 new square feet of climbing surface to the gym.

Next weekend, back to CT for the Stone Age competition.
