Red River Gorge

I wouldn't sweat the forecast that far out. There is always someting to climb even when it rains. The online guidebook at redriverclimbing.com - http://www.redriverclimbing.com/RRCGuideV2/ gives info on whether any particular route stays dry. _____________________________________________________________________ Support the Red River Gorge Climbers' Coalition.

Muir valley has a lot of good easy routes and also has some good areas that stay dry in rain. Im hoping to go finish my project down there next weekend.

Bum, save some energy for the big 'fest weekend too. Hope to be in town by the 10th

never let the threat of rain keep you from going to the Red, in fact we could use the rain... I'm sure Katie would concur

i need a ride down there and then i need someone to climb with. idk if ana will show up since she fell to the ground from 3 clips up down there.

Do you know if Ana is going to Triple Crown? Oh and i dont have a ride either... the Marlowes (max) are going on like a long roadtrip (nothing new) and so i cant miss school..... =(

Aaagh, I'm no help cuz yer so far south of me and besides, I'm going during week days so you would miss school with my ride;-( What will we do without you there? Keep trying!

There is a carpool bulletin board up on the RRGCC site - http://www.rrgcc.org/roctrip_carpool.php Is Ana OK? Now that you mention it she wasn't at Climb Time Tuesday night like she usually is. _____________________________________________________________________ Support the Red River Gorge Climbers' Coalition.

Idk if she is still going to do it. She sais she was going to skip something. As far as i know i think she will be alright and able to climb another day.

Ana in Columbus? What happened to her? Hi, by the way... I am new here, but I definitely see some familiar faces....

yea, but she lives in cinci now. she said she was taking a fall on purpose and the belay device didnt lock up or something.

Welcome to the site dmw. Ana has a sprained ankle but is OK. She will be @ Rocktoberfest.

Ash, how is the TC going for you this weekend? Post up! Stories and photos puulleese.

I bet its a real eye opener for her. Im glad she is ok. she owes me a belay! haha

Thanks for the Muir Valley suggestion. We climbed there, it rained, we stayed dry and had fun. Just some thoughts about my trip and climbing. Last week, my climbing group handed out its annual climbing awards. My friend won ice climber of the year, I won most improved. We aren't the strongest climbers in the group. But our most important climbing goal is to have fun. This past week we had a lot of fun. There was eight of us. Each day someone had a new personal achievement. Don was our crack master and one day he led two awesome cracks. The folks that knew how to climb cracks taught those who needed work on their jamming skills. Gary was psyched to be climbing for the first time in three years. Bob (our trip organizer) didn't care what he climbed, he was just happy to be out in a beautiful location surrounded by friends. Steve and I climbed an 11 clean for the first time. Jonathan was our rock star at Muir. We were all happy for each other and cheered each other on. Alex Lowe once famously said, "The best climber in the world is the one who's having the most fun." We were the best climbers in the world.
