Heres the jist of it...im a gumby, only been climbing about 9 months but am completely obsessed. I live about an hour south of the gunks and have the next couple weeks off from work..where should I go? there is 0 friction in the gunks right now and I know a bunxh of locals who stick to night climbing till it's fall again..so yea no thanks.
Was thinking of going north to the adks or maybe rumney, but am worried the bugs may be even worse than they are down here..I am only climbing v4/v5 stuff, how is pa rock in the summer like haycock etc? Less friction dependent than the gunks I hope?
And real quick...can someone tell me where the deep water soloing stuff is in the NE? Ive heard theres some stuff in CT...any advice/tips much appreciated
