Beta for my fellow climbers
Sphincteral Agony (V10) - Lincoln Woods, MA
A rarely done and strange climb, but surprisingly fun! High right foot toe cam was a great beta unlock, thanks @ToddTClimbing

Very technical few moves to start this one; took me a while to stick the second move. The key ended up being pulling up to get your toe in the right position to catch; if your hips are too low the toe will pop out.

Extremely scrunchy sit starting in the same place as Pocket Rocket. Leads into the stand documented on Mountain Project.
Bottle Rocket (V9+) - Lincoln Woods, RI

Extension to Pocket Rocket that adds a few sloper moves after the pocket. Definitely temp dependent.

Seems like getting the left toe up was key... Good mix of power and flexibility needed on this one.

One of the classics at Farley! Was able to avoid the shorter-person foot walk with some different beta. Thanks to @eric_dew for talking me through the topout!

Prepare your skin for this one! Low start to the stand (V8) starting at the two sloper pinches. Getting the heel right makes a huge difference, it almost feels like a (very bad) cam.

Short but hard one near some other classics on the Lebanon/Hanover border. Crazy how many types of holds you get in only a few moves! Pocket, slot, pinch, sloper, and slimper all in 4 moves.

A mix of balance and power moves make up this beautiful problem near Hypertherm in Hanover, NH. Not highly trafficked but this deserves more attention!
A Moment of Friction (V10) - Richmond Hillside, NH
มุมมอง 192ปีที่แล้ว
Starting right of the Sound of Friction start, this is a great slopey crimp line that requires some cool tension moves and some high feet for my beta. I've seen this done a few ways, but this seemed best for me
Hunk Hogan (V10) - Richmond Hillside, NH

Power grunt for this one! One full body try hard move, and the top is still tough after that. This is the direct finish to Hulk Hogan, mantling straight up instead of going out left. Hopefully coming back soon to try the sit!

Wow good conditions definitely help with this one! Full body moves on incredible slopers lead to a tricky last move that gets so much harder when done from the start.
First Years (V10/11) - Lebanon, NH

Direct finish to Blockbuster near Rix Ledges in Lebanon, NH. Solid alternative to Blockbuster, but not as good in my opinion. Definitely worth trying though!
Blockbuster (V10) - Lebanon, NH

Classic block with some unique movement in Lebanon, NH. A bit of a bushwhack, but worth it! Best to do in colder temps to avoid firing off the crux crimp (thanks to Julia for the chalk bag assist)

One of New England's best! Incredible variety of holds and moves, definitely one of my favorites. Thanks for filming Eric!

My butt hurts from watchin'
let's go Silas!
Nice!
Crushed it Silas!!
Lets go dude!
nice send and nice meeting you yesterday :)
Where is this?
This is on the same hillside as Blockbuster at Rix Ledges, but you park/hike a different way (much easier than Blockbuster approach). Feel free to message me on mountain project and i can send you some more detailed beta
@ I am from the Lebanon area but I haven’t used MP in years. I didn’t know you could message people on there. I have also never heard of Rix Ledges.
@@timarmstrong8817 you park at 89 Etna Road (at the top of the hill) and find a path behind the parking lot. Follow this path for ~15-20 minutes up along the ridge until you find a small cairn on the right side of the path above a mini ravine (a bit of a V in the hillside). The boulder Bone is on is visible from the trail and is ~100 ft. below the path
Rocket man!
Nice, this exit looks super tricky. Did you end up trying Apollo 1?
Sadly didn't have time (or sunlight left) that day, but hoping to try it sometime this winter!
Solid send
Nice work!
Nice Job! Glad to see some high grade climbs in Farley!
Many good sends on this problem that day.
V10??? No it isn't.
Lets gooooo! Nice job dude. Probably the first send of this thing since I did it in 2020! Love to see it getting done!
Thanks man! The cut feet beta was a bit more chaotic than what you did, but it seemed to work (almost dabbed though)
nice work! is the main parking still shut down?
Yes the old parking is not available, but there is parking for another trail along the same road. Adds a bit to the approach but not too bad
wake up babe new silas send just dropped
Wow! Beta break using the crack! Looks like a back 3 lock?
Yeah! Tricky getting it right to allow for the foot cut but it works well once you figure it out
Let’s gooo Silas
WOW! impressive
nice work! definitely some of the best footy i've seen of this too!
Hi! I live in Leb and have tried to find this boulder a few times, can you provide any directions?
If you park in the back of the White River Technologies parking lot near the woods and bushwhack up the hill ~10 minutes going slightly right you should find it. Here is the location I pinned when I was at the boulder: maps.app.goo.gl/faaDPjuTmup8UcTQ9?g_st=i. The climb faces North-East
@@silasmonahan8284 Ah thank you, I've also been looking for info on this boulder. Would love to try it someday! Great send!
Omg, he's unstoppable! 🔥🔥
Good work!! I’d love to do this line one day
Go get it! The boulder is very workable since all the moves are pretty reachable from the ground
Add this to my to-do list!
Nice job!!
genius beta
Me: Tape on the right pointer finger, this must be the Yo Ali boulder. Me: Reads youtube description...yep.
Heavy!!!
That heel hook! I gotta try!
Nice videos man. I had a chance to spend some time on this boulder a few days ago and your beta helped a lot lol. I'd probably give the arete start V6 rather than V8. Didn't manage to do the low start though.
Smooth AF
So smooth! How tall are you / Ape? The second half beta looks soo nice. I’m 5’11” +5. Hoping I can use similar style
Im 5'7" +1 so if it's reach you're worried about you should be just fine!
@@silasmonahan8284 right on. Btw: you’ve got great technique. I studied your film on full throttle. Solid beta
Thanks! Best of lock on Barbed Wire
WOOOOOOOO 🎉
Very impressive! Go silas <3
nice, haven't seen left hand to the pocket beta before!
For some reason it just felt better for me!
Yeah, that's super interesting beta, I'll have to give it a whirl.
Very nice
Sick one! if you're back in the area anytime hmu , my instagram is averyachurchill
