At first we were skeptical about how much climbing was actually going to be done because rain had filled the canyon on our trip up to the 420's but by the time we reached the gate to the access road the sun was out, the wind picked up and the temps were around 56.. PERFECT! We started off at the Hanks boulder and I managed to do pretty much everything on it quickly. My favorite by far being Hanks Lunge v5*** on the back side of the boulder. I managed to do a v11 2nd try called Private Property. Bri and were both psyched to see more, so we headed back to the main concentration of boulders and began to climb anything that caught our eye. At this point in the day it was getting very late as earlier we waited at a Shell gas station for awhile to see if the rain would break. Time was against us. Bri managed to do some quality lines and really push herself on her new project Scarface v6. I am sure it will go down the next time we are out.
I got on so many classic lines and looked at so many more that I didn't have a chance to get on. I cant wait to get back out and climb in the Poudre. A must go if you are in northern CO.
