Thanks, Tim. I wanted to include you in a photo, but I didn't have any climbing shots of you besides you smiling at a top of a boulder. Next post for sure...<br><br>I will start brainstorming on the fab quality of Almscliff... =)<br>Best.<br>Rachel Ha ha! Thanks, Tim.

My friend Steve is a master of techniques when it comes to weather prediction and knowing how to dodge the storms. I must admit that I climbed lots more than I would have otherwise thought considering the rain because of Steve's skills.<br><br>They do talk about if the rock was "green". I had no idea what people were talking about at first... but then I quickly learned that the rock really does moss a bit just after a simple storm. It is wild. I saw these one people climbing on this wall that was COMPLETELY mossy... no big deal.. just cruising their way up. Ha!<br><br>Thanks for the comment, girl.<br>Rachel Lil' Chicka,

The stone is perfect looking. I bet if you can get around the weather, it's rad! Love all the moss growing on the boulders, it's probably like a first ascent everytime you clean it off :) Wow, that place looks so lush and beautiful! The stone is perfect looking.
