The Climbing Works Winter Bouldering League Overall Results
Friday night was the final round of this years Winter Bouldering League and a big crowd turned out to climb the last problems set on this version of the Berghaus Competition Wall.
The winner of this years competition (best 3 scores out of 4 rounds) in each category are listed below:
Mens (Senior): Grant Bateman
Womens(Senior): Diane Merrick
Boys: Joe Broadhead
Girls: Hannah Wilson (Hannah tied with Tasha but wins as she scored a higher tally when all 4 rounds were counted)
The Mens and Womens champions win a 3 month full membership to The Climbing Works. The junior boys and girls champions win a £40 credit for The Climbing Works shop.
The results from round 4, and the overall scores after 4 rounds (best 3 out of 4 count) can be found on our website here. Looking at the results of round 4 you would think that it was a quiet comp with only 49 competitors. In fact we gave out more than 70 scorecards meaning that over 20 people did not hand in their card (people like Ryan Beggs, Steve Yeoman, Ned van der Freewilly & Leah Crane).
Those who did hand in their scorecards got a chance to win a pair of 5.10 shoes. The winners of the final pair are Paul Latham & Sophie Whyte. To claim your shoes, please get in touch.
You can view a gallery of images from the final round on our facebook page or on our Picasa online gallery.
The next competition will of course be The CWIF which will take place on the brand new competition wall on the 5th-6th March.

Resetting
The Berghaus Competition wall has been stripped this morning and now has the boys (Percy, the Enigma and UF) getting their heads around setting the harder problems for tomorrow nights Round 4 of the Winter Bouldering League.
As stated before, this will be the final competition on the current Berghaus competition wall with the wall being demolished next Thursday. This is the 50th reset of the wall so expect a goodbye set of body contorting problems. There will of course be the male & female cash blocs with £125 for the men's and the £375 (double rollover) for the women's.
Come down for the start at 6pm and enjoy the final round on this version of the competition wall.

FiveTen Arrowhead
New into our shop today are the FiveTen Arrowheads.
These are the latest evolution of the classic Anasazi range from FiveTen. Based on the same last as the Anasazi, the obvious difference is that this baby has a downturned toe. This is what the Arrowhead is all about. It fills a gap in the range between the Anasazi velcro and the Dragon, offering a shoe that will perform on steep terrain and small edges.
The heel has also been redesigned and first impressions are that it is a slightly firmer slingshot style heel that should perform better on heel hooking that the old velcro. The all important shoe rubber is Stealth Onyxx though FiveTen have doubled up, going for Stealth Mystique on the toe rand (giving a softer toe box) which should help with tricky toehooks.
Like all FiveTen's they feel quite blocky when you first put them on but the Stealth Onyxx does break in and you can expect the shoe to perform well on slopers as well as edges after you've worn / bedded them for a while.
Sizing:
I am a UK 8 in normal shoes. I take a 7 in the Anasazi VCS and 6.5 in the Anasazi LV. The Arrowhead in a 7.5 was a snug fit and a 7 was a very tight fit and with even a little stretch it would still be tight.
The Arrowhead is a fine addition to the FiveTen range and is the next step up in the Anasazi range after the classic Velcro. The price is a hefty £105* but they'll be a popular shoe for sure.
*All FiveTen climbing shoes will be going up in price by the end of the month. Expect roughly a £15-20 increase across the range with the classic Anasazi VCS going up to £100. Get your FiveTen's at the old price before the price increases>>

Climbing Donner Pass history
Thunder and incredibly historic rock Pass is located about 90 miles north of Sacramento, Calif., just west of Thunder Lake and Truckee, California. Yes, the famous Donner Pass, the party were killed in the early days of the Old West.
Apart from the modern history of the famous in this area with spectacular granite dome as walls, cliffs, overhangs with thin and launch ramps multi-recording has it all! What is most impressive about this area is a popular sport and traditional climbing in harmony with one another. Not succumb to the destruction of over bumps, scratches, or garbage along the trails. The beginner can top rope climber, a leader can clip bolts or change the position of soloist and has ample places in Boulder.
Once you reach the top, you start to see some of the reefs to see. The first wall you come to the "Stealth and Black Wall" on your right. Later the road was the "off road" and "Peanut Gallery" Space Agency "Wall" on the hill above. Finally get to the meat of the summit and see the Snow Shed Wall "on the left. Below the bridge is clear that the" Green Phantom walls and Sun. Beyond the Bridge School "Rock", "Baboon Rock ", then" Or Curls "
Believe it or not, that's not all! If you park at school, "Rock" and walk on the path, is the "Star Walls (who love the hardest of all the ribs), after the walls to reach the star 19 and 20" Grouse Flat "and the amazing rock, overlooking the lake.
Descent: The walls are not the article. It's just a matter of finding the path of least resistance and beyond.
When all is said and done for the day climbing activities, you can go on the north shore of Donner Lake, and enjoy one of several pillars for public use. Enjoy the clear blue waters of the lake.
