hey so the idea will be to create a form that people in and around the adk's can post up bouldering areas, single boulders and potential bouldering areas. Pictures, video and descriptions. Share your secrets. A frapper map will be attached to pin point areas.

the first problem (the one in the video) has been done and documented here: http://www.weekendbouldering.com/2011/05/dark-lord-has-returned-hogwarts-is-no.html
my proposed grade of V3 is absurd, its more or less a V0 but a good deal of fun I might say.
Fun problem. Yeah prob not v3 but tricky.
The last prob in the pic is super fun n the knob hold is really unique.
lowball choss, just sayin
lowball?? every problem there is at least 6 feet tall. Thats pretty big in my book.
Had tons of fun climbing there recently, lots of new problems to do. Granted most of the stuff is not stunning or obvious but good stuff and 2 of the projects I saw are really cool. Development is high enough that I'm thinking its time for some documentation. Anyone? Anyone?
WeekendBouldering has a great post with descriptions of problems (see above). How about some more of that.
I have 90% of the boulder field mapped and almost all of the established climbs documented. The only problem with making that information available to the public is that we don't have approved access to the land where the boulders are...it is not state land and is privately owned. We have had no isses to date, but we all know that with a readily available guidebook, the number of climbers and frequency of visits to the area will increase which will lead to issues in this particular case. In years past, the land owner had granted a select few permission to climb on the cliffs above the boulder field. This permission was taken away about eight years ago for reasons unknown. I am led to believe that the landowners family members began using the property for hunting and other misc. outdoor activities (as discovered last year) and did not want other people out there as well.
Also, after looking at some tax map parcel pdf's that I found online last year, the boulder field is split between two separate land owners. The one owner who had given permission in the past owns the cliff portion of the area. The landowner who owns most of the property where the boulders lie lives right on top of the hill above the boulders.
