Apr. 16, 2005 - Foster Falls
Our forth trip this year had again perfect sunny weather and very good climbing conditions. We had 15 - 20 participants who met at Cumberland Mall on Saturday morning. Gary and Carole joined us at the parking area of Foster Falls and as soon as everybody was ready to go we hiked down to the waterfall and along the creek to the Jimmywood climbing area.
We setup the following climbs:
- Bear Mountain Picnic 5.8+
- Miss Prissy 5.9
- Miss Scarlet 5.9+
- Diamond Cutter 5.10 b/c
- Mammy 5.9
- Wet Willie 5.9
- Wedgie 5.10 b/c (variant 5.9)
In order to spread the crowd around a bit some of us headed to the areas
- Rehab Slab
- Rolffed 5.9+
- Therapist 5.9+
- Rocket Slab
- Gravity Boots 5.7
- Afterburner 5.5
At 5 pm we hiked out because everybody was exhausted after an exciting and long climbing day. Most of us headed back to Atlanta immediately. Carole, Wes, Bill and I enjoyed another climbing day in the Red Light District and left on Sunday evening to drive back to Atlanta.
I would like to thank all of you for your support, especially by setting up some difficult climbs that made the trip to another big success.
