Off_White Posted May 18, 2007 Posted May 18, 2007 Yeah, I think it's really nice that we have finally have something to offer both of our boulderers. Quote
EWolfe Posted May 20, 2007 Posted May 20, 2007 Yeah, I think it's really nice that we have finally have something to offer both of our boulderers. Â One of whom is pulling the infamous highball, foreign-dignitary's-daughter bedding move. Â Wack. Quote
Gary_Yngve Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Choss. Â How is it a secret being so close to _ _ _ _ _ _? Â RENTON? Quote
tradclimbguy Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Man, I got all excited thinking about some new spot... Â Then I checked out the pics. Is is just pebble wrestling or are there any actual climbs? Â Very disappointing. Quote
Off_White Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 It is a bouldering area, not a cragging destination. Good bouldering in western WA is harder to come by than chuffing, so I wouldn't dismiss it out of hand if I were you. Quote
tradclimbguy Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Dismiss it I will! Â You keep your pebbles, I'm fine with that Quote
Jens Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Not to rain on anyone's parade but all the boulering described in this thread is fun but not 3 or 4 star by any stretch. Quote
Off_White Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Not my pebbles, but no skin off my nose either. Quote
fenderfour Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Not to rain on anyone's parade but all the boulering described in this thread is fun but not 3 or 4 star by any stretch. Â I'm pretty sure Jens is only here to piss on everyone's day. I had to stop wearing my daisy chain like a g-string because of him. Thanks a lot Jens. Quote
kix Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 come spend a day with me Jens and then eat your words. Â you wont say that it isnt the best 5 star bouldering within 20 minutes of my house. Quote
ilookeddown Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 (edited) Kix  Thanks for giving me a tour of the area on Saturday. The area has many possibilities. With increased traffic it could be outstanding. There are many boulders with problem from 12' to 18' top-outs. All are vertical to overhanging. Some of the landing areas could use some attention IMO but overall I got a great workout and will go back. Again, if it saw some more traffic and a little development it will be a fun place to spend the day.  Edited May 22, 2007 by ilookeddown Quote
dom Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Yeah, I think it's really nice that we have finally have something to offer both of our boulderers.  hey i know theres at least three of us  Quote
kix Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 I am moving away in 1 month.  In the next few days I will post detailed directions for all to the Black Forest.  Myself and another boulderer known only as PECK have been the primary developers for the past 2 and a half years. PECK is already gone. I am one foot out the door (all I have left)  The Black Forest is our gift to Seattle boulderers.  I broke my ankle on Saturday, so I will not be offering any more tours. (broke it at another secret area on SI with GREAT rock, but no paths and very dangerous terrain). get out and explore pussies. there is other rock beside the choss crap found at little si and x38 in the I90 corridor. much better rock.  seriously, most seattle area boulderers are sheep looking to herd at known areas. baaaaaa. hopefully you herds will help keep the moss at bay.  there is lots of great rock closer than goldbar and 11worth for those who are motivated.  There is even VERY GOOD rock on Tiger, not conglomerate choss (of which there is plenty), if you know where to look.  stay tuned.  Terry  p.s. I may change my mind. sukit. Quote
kix Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 I thought it was just another in a long line of contemptuous, taunting posts. Â but whatever. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Quote
drater Posted July 13, 2007 Posted July 13, 2007 I thought it was just another in a long line of contemptuous, taunting posts. but whatever.   It was good but did you expect any different from me?  Hopefully all that chrystal (meth) gazing you'll be doing in sedona will align your ankle chakra and you'll be a unified complete entity again.  With the capabilities of putting my liners in the post before the snow falls again even!!

drater Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 STFU & putt the ballgag back in, you lederhosen clad dwarf. Â It's not like you're sticking around the pacific north wet any longer. Â Agreed that kix's posturing and shameless self promotion is sickening. Quote
cman Posted July 14, 2007 Posted July 14, 2007 you should post some info, i'll check the place out. it is always fun climbing at a new area. I hiked around that area one day and saw the bolts of the shorty sport climbs, WW2 i think?, and figured the bouldering was around there somewhere. Quote
drater Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 8 pages on the Black Forest? I must have been mistaken when I claimed it not to be the best boldering in Washington. I sit corrected. Quote
