Jockeybush Lake- New Adirondack Boulder

To all the interested readers out there, I unearthed this new Adirondack boulder a couple of weeks ago.  I had come across it a couple years ago while cross country skiing but never went back to further investigate.  When I visited it again recently, I realized that it was worth the effort to clean the potential boulder problems and to begin working on them.  The boulder is a stand along glacial erratic and is right off of the trailhead for Jockeybush Lake which is about 10 miles north of Nine Corners Lake.  After reviewing some topography maps of the surrounding area, there very well may be additional boulders nearby. 

Here is a quick video of some of the problems that I put up this past weekend.  Deet!

  1. Nice dyno variation, I like it! Any possibility of a dyno directly off of that hold in the middle of the face to the top without using the arete your left hand was on? That looks like it could be really difficult.

    2. Im out here in Portland, Oregon. Been doing the rope thing at Smtih Rock this year. Definately excited to see what the boulder scene has to offer. Trying to make leavenworth a weekend spot. As for 2013, I dont see anything working out just yet. But on the upside, I am trying to make it to NY and maybe even the dacks for New Years. Gotta get on those NE boulders. I miss them alot.
