Roadtrip Week 22 & 23: Horse Shoe Canyon Ranch, Arkansas

After 4 great months in the South East, I pointed my vehicle west, heading to Arkansas to meet up with friends of mine from Boone, Rock Town and Chattanooga.

The Boone boys. I hadn’t seen these guys for at least a couple months, and it was superb to catch up again in a new location.  Pictured (from left to right) are Erich, Tilley, Daniel, Luna (the brillant white dog) and Sparticus (one of the guard dogs).

Daniel on The Orbweaver.  This was by far one of my favorite problems on this entire road trip.  I didn’t get the send on this one, but it was so enjoyable to work.

Steve on the Sloping Joe boulder. Please note that he topped this problem with the beach whale. =)

Me working Razors Edge, a crimpy arete, in the South Idaho area. 

Phil working Slopadon Milosevic on the Sloping Joe boulder.

Erich on The Crescent.


Camp during the morning goat migration.

My whole life in a pile, waiting for the house (aka my car) to be cleaned. =)

    Hey! I've enjoyed reading all of the great beta on your blog. I'm going to be leaving for my own road trip here in a day and have gleaned some extremely awesome insight.

    Coincidentally, I, unknowingly until now, ran into you last year at HCR at almost this exact same time. My name is Logan, and I bouldered with you and the Boone boys on a small bloc to the right of the Orb Weaver bloc. It is cool to see all of your awesome info and I'm sure it is going to help me along my way!
  • Hey Logan!
    Haha... funny that we have already bouldered together. :) I know exactly which boulder you are talking about. Nice to chat with you again!

    Thanks so much for reading the blog and commenting. If you have any questions about road-tripping, where to visit, etc., feel free to drop me an email (wasatchgirl at gmail.com) and I would be happy to try and help you out. I am real excited about your road trip! Hope it is a blast for you!
    Cheers.
