boulder boulder boulder

WHAT do you do when you have to work at 11:30 and you live in the gunks? You go bouldering for an hour of course. Matt and I checked out some of the boulders on carriage road this morning at the trapps. Did some pulling on a couple of different V4s, all awesome problems, all close to being solved.

After doing some warming up, we got on a climb called Hugh Herr Roof which is a V4. It starts way under this roof. You do a few moves to get to the lip of the roof, and then there are some slopers and you just fire to the top. All of the feet under the roof are way polished so it's kinda tough. Great problem though.

Since we only had a little bit of time, and we both have bouldering A.D.D., we skipped over to the Lorax V4 and worked that for a little bit. Really cool moves under this big overhang. There is actually a toe cam involved, and maybe a knee bar. I had some trouble with the last few moves, but I think it is definitely reachable.
