Portland Bouldering

This weekend packed in some good bouldering down at the cuttings boulderfeild, Having a few unfinished routes from previous visits I was determined to put them to bed and get the tick...Quite a few of us were down there which made it more enjoyable and much more entertaining. I had a couple of routes I was really looking forward to doing, "Pornagraphic Beats" V4, and "Razorface" V8,. Ive been on both routes before, Pornagraphic being long and pumpy and a route that should be done at the beginning of the day, and Razorface being just well....Insane, but for some reason I am getting pretty close to gettting the tick on this even though it is way above my bouldering grade... although a great day I am still unable to put that tick mark next to any of these routes.. falling off on the last move of pornagraphic beats was really upsetting but this route only allows you to try 3-4 times before it sucks the life out of you....beleive me next time I will get this.... Below are some good shots from our day out....

Climb if you will, but remember that courage and strength are
naught without prudence, and that a momentary negliance may destroy the happiness of a lifetime. Do nothing in haste; Look well to each step; and from the beginning think what may be the end
