1) Quit peeing out of my butt (probably due to drinking expired milk and eating dumpster pizza, mmmmm).
2) Climb some new boulder problems. Unfortunately, I was absent minded enough to delete my old blog without copying over the long list of boulders I wanted to climb. That list has changed a bit anyway, so here’s a bit of an updated wish list:
Rocktown, GA
1) Golden Shower – V5 – Great problem. Glad to have done it. Probably more like 4/5, but took a lot of effort from me regardless. Really pretty face.
2) Soap on a Rope – V4
3) Island of Beautiful Women – V3/4?
4) Pythagorean Theorem – V5
5) Nose Candy – V6
Stone Fort, TN
1) The Wave – V6 – So psyched to tick this one off. It will take some convincing for me to take V5 on this thing. Caught it in perfect weather.
2) Manute Bol – V5 – Took the wave V6, felt guilty for taking this one too, so I won’t. Feels tough for me, don’t think my body fits these moves really well… nice prob.
3) Super Mario Ext. – V6
4) Shotgun – V6 – 1/15/2012 – Awesome. First V6, and glad it was. Very fun boulder problem.
5) Ghengis Khan – V5
6) Space – V8 – SHUT UP, I do what I want
7) Two Shoes Jack – V4 – In actuality, probably at least 3 grades harder than space
8) Rage – V5 – Fell after the crux on the topout jugs of this thing yesterday (1/15), looking forward to getting back.
Horse Pens 40, AL
1) Getcha Some – V5
2) Hammerhead – V5 – 3/4/2012 – Wow. Didn’t expect to do this thing anytime soon.
3) Mulletino to the lip – V4/5 – 1/6/2012 – “George, did you take V5 on your scorecard?” You will ask, and I will say “Yes, but then I went back and changed it to 4/5 cause I felt guilty”. Glad to have it done, not worth whatever it did to my shoulder. OUCH
4) Trick or Treat – V6 – Can’t win it if ye ain’t in it SON!
5) Mortal Kombat – V4
6) Boogey Wonderland – V4 – 3/4/2012 – Still couldn’t tell you how I ended up on top of this thing. Ridiculous
7) Uniball – V4
8) Green Lantern – V3 – 1/6/2012 – One hard arse V3
9) Orca – V3 – 3/4/2012 – Finally felt like V3
10) Horsepower – V3 – 3/4/2012 – Didn’t feel even remotely like V3, maybe V6?
11) Popeye – V5
Boone, NC
1) West Texas – V3
2) Pullin Teeth – V4 – Will have to wait until that finger is ready to crimp again…
3) Mighty Mouse – V5 – Ambitions
4) Haptos – V4
5) Patio Arete – V4
6) M1 – V3 – Scares the nuts off of me, I hate rockovers
7) Nitrous Oxide – V5
8) Throttle – V5 – Would mark a bigtime progression for me. Really want to do this one.
9) The Fin – V5 – Got close on this one, just couldn’t keep it together to finish.
Rumbling Bald, NC
1) Lewis Lunge – V5
2) The Sail – V4
3) Pit BBQ – V6
4) Grease Pit – V5 2/18/2012 – Can’t take 6 on this thing… feels every bit of V5 to me though. Lewis Lunge is hard…
5) Brackish One – V4
6) Slave Driver – V3 – 1/4/2012 – Can’t decide if this or Genesis is the hardest V3 of all time
7) Campus Problem – V5
Hueco Tanks
1) Sign of the Cross – V3 – Hueco Tanks, should go without saying. Need to do this if I go back…
2) Moonshine Roof – V4 – Will also be a major goal if I make it back to Hueco this year.
3) Bodysnatchers – V4
4) Lobster Claw – V5 – Would be nice to send V5 in Hueco, though it doesn’t seem likely.
5) Wicicala Cave – V5
6) Ghetto Simulator – V2 – Didn’t walk down to this one last trip, need to make sure it happens this year.
7) T- Bone Shuffle – V4
8) Jingus Bells – V5- Not sure how my balls will feel when I’m standing under this one, but it looks incredible.
Other Stuff
1) Riverfront – V5 – At Cumberland, one of the prettiest problems I’ve ever seen…
I plan to add/tick from this list as new problems come and (hopefully) go. This is more for myself than for the 2 people reading this, but who knows, maybe this list will get someone else psyched to hit up these areas and try these problems.
