Beautiful Days at GB and PKill

This weekend was absolutely incredible for climbing. On Friday afternoon, Luke, Evan and Pinto and I rolled out to Great Barrington after Greg's funeral. A somber day for sure, but in honor of Greg, we had to climb. It was a quick 3 hour workout, but some great progress was made on the Bump (V8) for both Evan and I. Pinto sent after a number of tries and gave us the foot beta for next time we try it fresh. We then hopped on the Platform V6, Pistol Grip V6/7 (sent by myself and Luke) and Pinto worked Fatwa V9.

On the Monday holiday, we rolled down to New Paltz for a full day at PKill. No one sent anything huge. Ben got the Classic One (V5) and I made tons of progress on two fun V7s Village Idiot (consistantly getting to the final pop for the top.) and Delicate Soul. The weather was perfect for climbing, cloudy and about 65 degrees. We all got pretty burnt out by about 3pm after working really hard on our projects.

Do you ever make it out to the boulders at Farley? I've visited there a couple times, and would love to see some more of that place!

Yes. I think. We did the circuit at Wendell State Forest, which may also be called Montague Rd
