Bouldering Montana

I ended up at Lost Horse on Saturday. The Missoulians were out in force. Thanks to everyone for the extra pads/spots. The highlight of the day was sending Montana Meathook. I’d never tried it because of the intimidating grade and landing. Turns out it’s more like a V5 than V6 and I never even came close to falling into the pit. It’s definitely one of the best problems I’ve done anywhere (including Hueco, Joe’s, Bishop, etc…). Pure boulder problem: two hard, dynamic moves to an easy top-out. Unfortunately I didn’t get any pics or video.

I met up with Dan, Webber, and Holmer on Sunday in Whiskey on my way back. I was worked from LoHo so I didn’t end up climing much, but I did get a lot of media. Here’s a couple pics and a new video from last Sunday at Whiskey.

The send of the day was Ryan Holm’s FA of Deaf Zone, a highball V8. Proud send Holmer!

Hope y’all had a great weekend as well.

Here’s a couple vids showing 7 of the best new problems at the End of the Road Boulders at Whiskey. Check em’ out.
Myself on some stuff I’ve filmed over the last couple months:

The Cornballer and Little Debbie’s Fried Chicken Fury are two of the best problems I’ve done at Whiskey.

Jeff Webber on a couple established problems and another new one.

The Seamstress is another new classic. The height is borderline highball, but it stay on ya’ until the very end, making it a great frightener.

Gettin’ psyched for some potentially perfect weekend weather. Probably gonna be LoHo with a little Whiskey possibly thrown in on the way back to Bozeman.
