Fantastic. What a line! And I love that you used Intro by The XX.

 ;)

Maybe he hasn't watched a bouldering video in the last few years...

Could actually be ironic by now...

It was fresh in Between the Trees but its been used to death now.

Bouldering? Chuffing?

Putting holds on a bridge? Poor form. Does look like fun though.

Deep Water Soloing perhaps?

Been done the world over including New Mills (near Manchester), albeit with bolts and no deep water.  Its not like they're natural structures anyway.

The trailer for a future vid about my local areas :)

You should definitely watch in HD. I think it's quality....

I had sound off and no idea that Todd Helgeson = Sasquatch?

Thanks for being so helpful though.

Talk about a disappointment I expected Sasquatch to have massive feet and be covered in hair!

As opposed to a tiny head with no hair? :)

Just watched it. The sceneries amazing Sasquatch! Why did I have to become a slave to the man?  :(
On a side note, faced with that why do you feel the need to go and do a sharp piece of shit that doesn't climb well boulder called the mandala? I honestly can't understand

I didn't think the Mandala was sharp.  Quite friendly actually.(our local granite is gnarly)  ;D  And aside from it being a crimpfest, I thought it climbed reasonably.  More subtle than I thought it would be (at least for me as I have to be perfectly efficient)

Realistically though, Two reasons for now:
1. When the season is done here in late October, it's done till april at the earliest.  that leaves many months of "hmm what should I do?"
2. History and Aesthetics - I think it's a beautiful line, and the Buttermilks are a beautiful area. 

I like the 'milks more than just about anywhere I've climbed in the US, and really only third overall for me behind Hatcher Pass(local) and Squamish.  But then again, I've only done the western US, southeast US a bit, and kalymnos.  Not been to Font, Switzerland, etc. yet.

I'm assuming those lines were 8c....I blame Sharma for the lack of grade references. Looks amazing, if a little sharp.
That last problem looked E8! I wonder how long the walk back was :sick:

Amazing looking place and rock though.

I read somewhere on the web the approach to the bouldering was 1.5 hours. Ouch.

Ooof indeed. Agree with the amazing blocs but sharp-looking rock comment.
