Well the last few weeks have been loco.The word about The Riverside is spreading, more and more are coming out to sample some of North Atlanta's best. The photo topos are evolving to be easier to follow. The climbing is getting good with the colder weather setting in and no more little blood thirsty bugs, Yeah that is definitely worth being exited about.
And then I took a walk down the Appalachian Trail. This thing is no joke. It is steep and gains elevation fast. So we started up this thing hoping the trail on the way up to the top would be lined with boulders. More than you could imagine. There was a few boulders, but not what I was thinking was there. Although the part of the trail I walked didnt have much for rock it made up for in visual stimulation.
After the hike we took off down the road in the Crag huntin mobile and went in search of other areas. So we are driving around the roads and we make a few turns here and there and drive past waterfalls and through a few creeks. Thank you Subaru. Up through a gorge and Boom there were boulders and a campsite right in front of them.
We drove around the area till dark and found a bunch of rock. Then it got dark, Till next time enjoy some pics.

The Huntcliff Deep water soloing

I went in search of a lead I had picked up on the internet. The girlfriend and I put the Kayaks in the river near roswell. Paddled downstream and within a few miles found a cliff line. This cliff is sprouting from the water and rises about 70ft. It is about 250-300ft long. On the rock I noticed a bolted line. All in all there are about 20-25 routes or so. Most of the routes are over deep water. I would recommend checking the landing. The water was not to cold it was nice after sitting in the sun for so long. If you climb here do not top out. You are climbing behind a multi-million dollar subdivision and I do not see them enjoying a random climber walking on there property.
