With the weather looking top-notch I snuck back to Wyoming with Jason Pinto one more time for a sending weekend at the Kitchen. I had put many hours into finding, scrubbing and cleaning a number of projects and this time my focus was to get things done before the impending winter storms rolled through. It’s [...]

Wild Basin is slowly becoming one of the most popular bouldering destinations in Colorado. The relatively quick approach, short hike, and excellent quality boulder problems make it an appealing destination, particularly as the weather has finally cooled off here in Boulder and the leaves are brilliantly gold.
