Just a dude who makes go pro vids every now and then.
If there is a climb you want to see, drop me a comment and I’ll do my best to film it.

Mr. Mogley 5.11c - New River Gorge
Very cool route that was surprisingly pumpy, conditions didn't help at all today. 100% humidity, 40% condensation, 25% rain made this one extra challenging.

Maximum Overdrive 5.11c - New River Gorge
มุมมอง 497ปีที่แล้ว
Surprisingly this route isn't on the internets yet. I've done this one a handful of times and it always seem to be at the end of the day and feels hard. Juggy face climbing with a crux down low and some hold finding up top. Mountain Project link: www.mountainproject.com/route/105994645/maximum-overdrive
Just Another Pretty Face - New River Gorge
มุมมอง 381ปีที่แล้ว
Back by popular demand. Here's another crappy first person video for all the chuffers out there. Just Another Pretty Face is a great line at the Lower Meadow. Start up some easy ground either soloing, placing gear of clipping the bolt of Might Dog to get to the ledge. Pull a low roof and you should have the route in the bag. Face climb up jugs to a slightly tricky but obvious traverse, then cli...
The Green Piece - New River Gorge
มุมมอง 8973 ปีที่แล้ว
The Green Piece is a really nice route at a very popular crag. If mid 5.10 is your jam, then this thing should be on your to-do list. Pretty much all good holds, there are a couple crimps and slopers to keep the variety high. This route is on the pumpier side of mid 5.10 than most routes of a similar grade at the NRG, so it might be a tougher tick. Either way, it is a must-do and will surely ma...
Flight of the Gumby 5.9 - New River Gorge

Shout out to Steve and Erica Lineberry! Check out their channel for some great footage of hard climbs! th-cam.com/users/stevelineberry Flight of the Gumby is an awesome route and one that always has a mass under it. This was a rare moment when nobody at the crag was in queue for it, so I had to jump on. Great rock, fun moves, and cool holds make this route a real classic of the grade. If you're...
Trad Climbing Raven Heart 5.10d - Hidden Valley
มุมมอง 1.3K3 ปีที่แล้ว
I apologize for the horizontal stripe across the upper half of the video. I finally bonked my camera and cracked the lens. Raven Heart is a really nice trad/mixed route in Hidden Valley VA. Start with some easy block climbing with a crack that gets progressively larger taking textbook cams. A no-hands rest on a ledge at the first bolt gets you ready for the second half of the route that climbs ...
Theobroma 5.10d - Red River Gorge
มุมมอง 9143 ปีที่แล้ว
Theobroma turned out to be a really nice route. A cool intro boulder problem to get off the ground leads to a short traverse left. Pull a couple more difficult moves then find the good pockets to get up to a no hands ledge. What looks like a tough roof system is actually pretty mellow as there are really good jugs and plenty of foot options. A few more slightly technical moves take you to the t...
Pulling Pockets 5.10d - Red River Gorge

This route was climbed with the permission of the land manager. THIS ROUTE IS ON PRIVATE PROPERTY. DO NOT CLIMB OR ATTEMPT TO CLIMB AT ROADSIDE CRAG WITHOUT FIRST OBTAINING A PERMIT OR BEING GRANTED ACCESS TO THE PROPERTY. So this one was easily my favorite of the four 5.10s on this wall. It probably has the easiest start since the ground gets closer to the wall the further right you go. This r...

DO NOT CLIMB OR ATTEMPT TO CLIMB AT ROADSIDE CRAG WITHOUT FIRST OBTAINING A PERMIT OR BEING GRANTED ACCESS TO THE PROPERTY. How many 5.10s can you say have two necessary monos on them? Dragonslayer is one. Whilst you don't have to do a Chris Sharma pull and jump to a pinch move on them; they can b...

This route was climbed with the permission of the land manager. THIS ROUTE IS ON PRIVATE PROPERTY. DO NOT CLIMB OR ATTEMPT TO CLIMB AT ROADSIDE CRAG WITHOUT FIRST OBTAINING A PERMIT OR BEING GRANTED ACCESS TO THE PROPERTY. Crazy Fingers was a heavy two-finger pocketed route. It kind of reminded me of a 5.10 version of Jesus Wept. If you like or are good at two-finger pockets, you should love th...

Now that that is out of the way, A.W.O.L is a super fun route for sampling red river 5.10 pump. A great warm-up route; the main difficulty is pulling off the ground. There are pl...
Eddie's Slab 5.11c - New River Gorge
มุมมอง 6003 ปีที่แล้ว
Eddie's Slab is a hidden gem at a crag full of excellent routes! Listed at 5.11c in the guidebook, this feels probably more like 5.10d. Either way, this route was a complete surprise in its quality, movement, and holds. As far as calling it "slab", it's pretty much a techy face climb. There is one difficult (potentially tall man) sequence involving an undercling towards the top, but we did find...
Pure Pleasure 5.11b - Red River Gorge
มุมมอง 9343 ปีที่แล้ว
Here's the last route from a "rest day" during a long trip. Pure Pleasure has quite a powerful start with some good holds and few surprisingly bad ones thrown in until you get to the rest. I thought the rest would be a lot more comfortable and saddle-like, but it wasn't the case. Climb some jugs for a few more bolts to a great rest before the final moves to the anchors. Figure out how to get to...
The Hustle 5.11b - Red River Gorge
มุมมอง 1.1K3 ปีที่แล้ว
This was a pleasant surprise for an end of day route. I snagged the onsight and really had a great time climbing it. This route is definitely the top pick of the wall. A tricky start with either some powerful moves or really high feet. The route is essentially all jugs with two sequences thrown in for a little challenge. If you're looking to break into more 5.11 territory, this route would be a...
Jack in the Pulpit 5.10d - Red River Gorge
มุมมอง 1K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Jack in the Pulpit is a great route that is tall, pumpy, technical in spots and a moderate! Pretty much all jugs, this route packed in a punch at the end of the day and made me work a littler harder than I normally would on a route of this grade. Start with some slightly dirty rock to a cool undercling move that serves as the first technical crux. Climb jugs for the majority of the way passing ...

Real Girls Don't Pumptrack 5.10c - Red River Gorge
My first ever Rock Climb. No, it gets easy every accent. The crux is just below the shunts. If you get the sequence right it is easy. First time my arms were crossed and I had to do a switch with both hands at the same time as my feet held all of my weight. I would rate it 10a, but mainly because of it short length. But it is a great little climb.
Every time I go to the Gallery I tell myself I am going to get on this but man it looks so intimidating! More like NRG bolt spacing on this one.
I didn't realize they named a route after me
V3 at my gym
Who’s here in 2024?
Preclipped second bolt? You might as well have top roped it.
I was here a few weeks ago and for the life of me when I got to that lower crux I forgot how I did it. I had to essentially campus that crux move, I completely forgot the feet I used previously. Watching you I think the trick is right foot up first, as once you put that high left the right is kinda stuck wherever you left it.
The first Perma on this is gone as of last week.
quelle pollution toute cette magnésie dans une voie hyper simple à faire en solo ou pieds nus .
Stay in font
What a long route!
U deserve more comments and like and views
cool
one of the most sandbagged 10a's evah
i climb 12+ and this thing actually shut me down on my onsight attempt. redpointed it on attempt 2 ofc and was cruiser. beta intensive imho
Going to RRG soon and I've been enjoying these videos of climbs that I want to do!
Since you spend so much time up at NRG, our AMGA guide put us on Maranatha at Sandstonia recently. I'd love to see that one - it's a fun 5.10c, though neither of us topped it. Would also love to see Fool Effect at Kaymoor. I think I led that one in 1997 but can't be sure. Coming back from a 27yr hiatus now that my 18yo son got into climbing. I like your clean, straightforward style, and your vids are fun and a bit inspiring.
Watching your stuff and enjoying. I'm 55 and stopped climbing in '97 - was busy in the Army. My youngest son, 18, asked me to take him to our local gym a month ago. He never stays for less than 3 hours. This weekend we're headed to the New with a guide from Blue Mountain. I can still, barely, hang on 5.9 or so. I have a film photo of me leading Fool Effect. If you ever hit that, I'd love to see it. I'm hoping we can take a look at it this weekend. Thanks for the Beta, and maybe we'll see you out there sometime!
Glad you're enjoying! I've only walked past fool effect but it looks awesome. Definitely an advanced 5.9.
Always love the videos, man! Gonna be in RRG this coming week climbing august 7-11. Seems like you're out in the New right now, but any chance we'll bump into you?
I've actually been at the new a lot the last 2 years, I just finally brought the camera out. I'm not planning on going back to the red for a bit.
I like this one better then milky way actually. It's close though.
Milky is cool but I don't think its as good as Flirting with E. That one is easily the best on the wall in my opinion.
This looks awesome, good send. Gonna try it next time I'm at the lake.
It's a good one! There's usually always someone climbing it.
Such a cool rt
THE RETURN
HES BAAAAAACK
You made that route look so easy and chill, even though I have seen it (not climbed it), & it is gnarly! Good work man! Keep the content coming!!!!
I love this climb
One of my favorite climbs at the gallery
this route was so awesome, has a very special place in my heart as my first 5.12 outdoors. seeing this years later makes me wanna get back on it!
I can hear how hot it is in this video lol
Nice! Such an odd climb
You went around the crux :(
Are you referring to the reach out right at 2:59? I've been trying to figure out if that is a valid hand and/or foot for this route, or if it belongs to the next line to the right.
My brother is Christ, you were backclipped on the first bolt.
Finally got on this route yesterday, wish I watched this before hand. My 12 year old daughter dyno'd from the jug at the crux. I tried that 3 times and kept whipping. A tall climber on the ground was yelling at me the side pull beta you did and it worked on the first go, then got to the anchor.
It's a good one for sure. You always need to be on the look out for sidepulls and underclings when climbing at the red.
I would just LOVE to climb this route!
Alex, I tried MENSA this weekend - it was my first time going to beauty mountain. This video was super helpful and loved the comparisons. Unfortunately I was third day on and couldn't find the lock-off strength to get the send but I'll def be coming back for this awesome route.
Nice Corey! You can definitely do this one!
nice climb! next month I am going to repoint this!
Nice
This route was u fortunately packed the many times i passed it those 2 novembers ago... one day
Yeah this is the one I was talking about at the gym.
It's a tough 5.10 for sure.
Sweet lead, really smooth man. Led this a few days ago and was one of my favorite climbs in the RRG.
Nice! It's a really fun climb.
What kind of climbing shoes are you using?
I use the Scarpa instincts.
Looks like that huge mushroom chicken head came off the route at the top based on a MP photo. Ugh. That hold looked so cool on the video. That's for sharing🤙
Climbed this last week and it is still there
The one that fell off was a little higher and on the right side.
how tall are you ? great video thanks
Good looking route. Good gear opportunities for the 10 part. Looked cruiser after the roof section. Thanks for sharing🤙
So I checked MP. Due to the strange local fear of outside climbers, it's hard to find info on this area. Having been there, is Hidden Valley worth the trip?
Hidden Valley is cool. Similar in style to the NRG. Grab yourself a guidebook and check it out!
I love how this climb is rather casual trad and then turns into a 10 on the sport section. I'm in love. Going on the list.
The top part is full value sport climbing. Really fun route all together.
Dude props to you for climbing ALL the way to the top. I flashed it but i was so scared abt falling cause i was pumped and would climb bolt to bolt then rest for like 10 mins that i didnt want to uncling that shit at the end and lock off and hope the top was good like you did. thank God i was tall enough to just reach and clip lol. GOOD SEND THO!!!
Thanks! I'm pretty comfortable onsighting 5.11, but I know the feeling of not wanting to fall.
World's easiest 5.9 it looks like. But super cool
This thing is 5.5 for someone who frequents the RRG.
So many features. Just added it to the to-do list🤙
Friends don't let friends climb slab 😆 🤙. Thanks for sharing.
Great looking climb and rock quality
