We (Lorenzo and I) started at the WEST SIDE outcrops on 103rd and Central Park West. We climbed loads of problems upto V7 including a great layback line that was an absolute gem. we scoped out the highball lines that go all the way to 106th but decided as it had started raining we should retreat to the Hepatitis Cave with Ivan and Mike. Now I bet your your thinking why anyone would you want to hangout at a cave named Hepatitis?
Take a look!

While hiding away from the rain we worked this new problem for a LOOOONNNNGGGGG time, slowly unfolding its mystery and complexity. After probably 4 hours of work we had made much progress but didn't manage to send it. Feeling peckish, we decided to leave for the day but not before I wrote a note to the homeless man that lives under the rock explaining that I'd like him to be part of of a climbing film about NYC Bouldering featuring some top climbers in the world. I left contact details and a pad and pen explaining that if he can't contact me by electronic means I'd be back in 2 days to pick up a note.
Will I get a reply? We'll have to wait and see!
