Mostly im trying to learn to use my camera.
So i figured they would be better to critique if i added funny content.

What happens when you slip? Just slide down? Bouldering looks pretty fricking awesome! I wish there were boulders in Louisiana.

If the shots are blurry, I can't tell, at this low resolution.

Are you shooting at full rez? If so, that's the time to check the shot. You can home in on a section of the frame and really check for sharpness. Resizing is going to rob a fair bit of resolution as well.

lots of boulderers carry a crash pad...and use spotters.
"Hey, catch me, would ya!!?"

Back in my day, we just took our lumps. But I never did much bouldering. A lot of our small climbs were big enough to rope up and lead--or top rope.

We have lots of great rock climbing areas in Wa. Many are 2-10 pitches. Then there's the mountains. My best climb in the state was a Grade 5 on the North Face of Mt Stuart. Maybe 25 pitches, 5.9+

Jerry, you might like Stuart. I've heard it's the largest mass of exposed granite in the country.

here's a trip report I just found on the net. When we did it, we didn't do the Great Gendarme, which adds 3 5.10 pitches to the climb, making it a real winner.
