After many tries on the problem and getting to the last hold twice and falling, he finally came back and sent the problem the next morning. Here he is starting the crux.

Here is a sequence of him finally sending the orb after only a days work. this is probably one of the most classic problems in the southeast.

Hardest v1 in the world. I know people have said stuff like this before, but I mean it. THE ENTIRE WORLD. I challenge anyone to present a harder v1. Look at my face and know I speakum the truth.

This was my favorite problem in the world until I walked further into Rocktown. Now, after having seen the entire southeast, it has dropped out of the rankings and my not see any tournament action.

rocktown, georgia...a favorite problem that once sent is definitely a repeatable offense!

rokklym on Double Trouble. This is a very cool roof problem that goes at V4. Another must do.

This is me, the gogirl on the crux of the bouldering problem on the rock next to the orb, just right of its overhang. After near an elbow smashing attempt, a heel hook saved me some energy for a look at the nasty topout.

A nice photo of the jug on Soap On A Rope. I like the texture of the rock in this one.

This is one of the classic problems at Rocktown. The slopers are perfect and the movement is pristine, to say the least. Picture taken by Pam in May 2003.

Taken by Tanner in December 2002. The Impaler is a classic mantle on impeccable southern sandstone. One of the countless classics at Rocktown.

this is me, reynolds, on the huge roof located on the first big boulder as you turn right off the main trail heading into the orb area.

This is one of the unnamed classics near "The Orb". It is a fantastic problem that involves lots of hauling out the roof, and then this tricky sloper-mantle. Here is Jared McAlpin on this classic.

Start at the bottom of the roof on jugs then move up and left to a slopey topout.

Trying my hand on Soap on a roap, just too powerful for now
