That guy "spotting" you the first few times on Geronimo really bugs me, hate it when my spotters do that haha
Narc
Not much of a spot necessary at that point

Pimpsqueak looks super cool. Nice job.
sorry
pretty ugly climbing, nice video though

what do you care what his climbing looks like. Last time I checked climbing/bouldering wasn't about appearance, it was about climbing and pushing yourself. You've probably watched too much American Idol and feel like you need to judge people.

Ugly? Seriously? Well I guess the throngs of climbers visiting from outside the region might disagree with you.
I've climbed in a number of bouldering areas all over the country and can honestly say that Gold Bar and Leavenworth are not only some of the most scenic, but the lines and blocs are fantastic as well. Come on, you're calling Pimpsqueek and Ross Bongo ugly? What is your criteria for attractive?

I think he was referring to the climbers style. With which I agree very jumpy not smooth or controlled at any moment. Even in the easy moments he seems to overdo it. The rocks look great!!!
Narc
The climber definitely needs to learn how to climb on granite better

Jumpy? Not smooth and controlled? It's called bouldering ;) Thrutching is the name of the game.

Video is cool, nice to see climbs for the people. If I were even able to get up a V8 or V9, pretty damn sure I wouldn't look controlled. This video keeps it real. We all suck, but trying hard and having fun is where it is at. Nice job Narc!!!

Looks like a great trip, you hit a lot of the classics.
Narc
Tried my best to hit as many within my ability as my skin could handle. Still bummed we never made it to Gold bar proper!

It's just an excuse to come back. GB is comparatively nice in the summer.
The 5star is really one of the crown jewels of the area though, it's pretty awesome!

Nice climbing! I frequently go bouldering in Leavenworth and would love to climb as hard as you do one day.
