Misc ramblings…
Memorize the dates above because there will be no more advance(d?) notice of Boulder Resets…………….ever……………..no really.
…ok fine, we’ll also let you know a week before they happen…but we’re not grading the problems anymore…nope…done with it.
We’re switching to a system of Good, Bad and Ugly (and we all know who sets those!) Ha! I’m kidding, we have to rate them. Otherwise you won’t have anything to complain talk about.
Happy climbing!

We thought we would surprise you this time by not announcing the resetting of boulder problems…at either gym! (turns out most people don’t read or plain just don’t notice our little signs telling of the impending doom that is to come to all of their favorite problems)
That being said we are almost done setting the problems for Boston (MA), and we already finished setting for the Lincoln (RI) gym Last week.
We’re trying something different this time for Boston as far as the ratings are concerned…curious? Then go see for yourself what the fuss is about…
Now ratings aside, the problems are great! We hope you like them, but if you ever want to voice your opinion…(good or bad) please do so without hesitation. Simply fill out a comment card and place it in the comment box…done.
Happy climbing!

Almost done…
57 New Routes and counting!!!
More than half of the Lincoln Rock Spot was stripped last week to make room for all of the new holds and new routes for our USAC Top-Rope Competition that was held on Sunday May 1st.
After a successful Comp (thanks to all of the competitors who showed up and chose to climb inside on what could be considered near perfect weather to climb outside) – we turned our sites towards resetting the rest of the gym.
After getting small amounts of holds trickling in here and there we decided the time was right to bring some new grips into the gym. About 600 new holds came in last week…which means two things. First…awesome new holds with actual texture and second…old holds (minus texture, but perfect for home walls) are going to be showing up in the pro-shop in Lincoln at super cheap prices. So keep an eye out because they won’t last.
So far we’ve got 57 new climbs, with more being set today and tomorrow. We’ll be resetting the lead cave soon as well so be on the look out for that update.
Thats it! Shut off the computer and get yer butts over to RI to check out of all the new great shapes and amazing routes!
