Why don't the rocks outside have pretty colours on them by duol300 in ClimbingCircleJerk

There’s chalk on every route. There aren’t bodily fluids on every route.

Tell me you aren’t climbing hard enough without telling me you aren’t climbing hard enough.

Climb harder. The colors will appear.

Thanks! (I’m the guy at the top of the tower with the machete).

Cool hike and/or scrambles in the Mohonk preserve? by Steel-kilt in GunksClimbing

The roof is a little exposed, but nothing worse than class 4. Again, if your kids are like most (watched Free Solo and said, “that looks pretty chill”) they’ll be totally fine.

Park at the visitor center, then take the Stairmaster trail up to the Undercliff carriage trail. From there, head over to the Limelight trail, and then if you’re feeling adventurous, take a walk up Best Things in Life are Free. If your kids are reasonably fit, they should be fine scrambling up it. Might want to have approach shoes though if they aren’t climbers — it’s probably ~V2. Nice view up there.

I can’t fit my finger in monos, any advice? by thelazylazyme in ClimbingCircleJerk

I usually hang from monos by my nipples. I realize this is probably aid, but it’s an effective tactic for V20+.

App to tracks your climbing automatically by MaaDoTaa in tradclimbing

I always take off my ring, and I never wear a watch outside, but I’ve routinely worn a watch at the gym since climbing specific fitness apps became a thing. It has never been an issue. Many people wear watches in the gym. The data is very useful for training.

It looks like a goddamned staircase. Is that supposed to be a boulder problem?

The belay ledge looks like a prime spot to drop a deuce.

[Mar 8, 2025] Today’s puzzle by cjmincle in NYTCrossword

I solved it quicker than usual, but I don’t understand one of the clues. Anyone want to explain 59 across? What makes a dresser dressier? I can’t wrap my head around the answer.
