Bouldering with Mason

Posted by: thirtysixtyninety In: Climbing

I’ve been climbing trad more than bouldering lately but it was a real treat the other day to go for a quick bouldering session with my old buddy Mason at Boat Rock in Atlanta while I was passing through.  Here are a few photos of him on a really cool crack.

The Plan:

In 2009, I plan to ski 30 days, climb 60 days and surf 90 days. Along the way I plan to shoot some video and raise 180 loans for entreprenuers around the world for kiva.org. For more info click on 'kiva' at the top of the page.
