EWolfe Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 I was just talking to friend tonight about how well the social/group environment that bouldering fosters compliments and balances the lonliness and isolation of the alpine environment. Nurture and Nature? All Things Seek Balance. Discuss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wfinley Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Most of the boulderers I meet are too stoned to carry a conversation. Unless you count "Dude - gaston up to that sloper" as conversation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you need to train for the approaches not the alpine leading. Otherwise, highballs!!! where the hell are all these large social groups of boulders you speak of? the gym? Everywhere. Squamish, JTree, Bishop, C4, Hueco...I find 'em at Preist's Draw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
