Temps have been a bit warm/wet in the 24060 the past few weeks considering the season, so the crew has made a few trips down to the classic Piedmont field, Moore's Wall. The giant north facing crag casts a shadow that's been keeping it crisp amongst the boulders. If you have never been, check out the awesome LT11 video below.
Having been a few years since we last visited, I wanted to check out a few new lines that have gone up ...
Vandalized (v6/7) - nice addition to an awesome block.
Rouge Wave (v8) - stellar!
Super Tsunami (v10) - awesome climbing...one to come back for
Pit Stain (v8ish) - also killer, a bit more "heady" than hard.
The Messer (v7) - cryptic...another one for the next trip
Blinded by the hype (v7/8) - was wet...
Hopefully, it will get cool in SWVA soon...lots to do, and never enough time.
Young Dave has returned to climbing after straining his hammy. After a brief stay in Banff to recover, word is he has headed back to the desert...

Love the blog Adam! Looks like our climbing days have mirrored yours...weve been at Moores the last 3 sat. in a row...... Why did it take me 16months of living in Va before I made it out there? Its so good and so close!
