Bouldering Nova Scotia - Back at it.

It's been a long summer for those who regularly check the blog for videos but a short one for me. As many of you know i had been working on a short film all spring and summer. After finishing i just ran out of steam. Well the good times are over, vacation is done and now it's time to get back to the business of climbing. Actually i'll just be spraying about climbing but it should be entertaining.

The Asylum is located just outside Corner Brook, Newfoundland. The climbing there is very different from the climbing around Nova Scotia in many ways but what i had the most trouble with was that most problems had no absolute start or end. The top of the cave was quite overgrown and much of the rock looked suspicious or chossy. The best way to approach the area was like a gym. Pick a good start hold, a good finish and figure out how to get there.
Here is a clip of Chris Richardson from our road trip to Newfoundland this summer. (don't worry there will be no eating of critters in this one)
