Cooper's Rocks

Well, my attempted climbing expedition was shut down today by "the man." It seems that the gated community we call Cooper's Rocks is not yet open for customers. I do not require them to give me camping spaces, or even ask them to plow the roads, i only ask them to open their gates here and there. Heaven forbid someone wishes to enjoy that beautiful area in the winter or at night for that matter.

Ohh well, I would hope you have figured out that when I got off exit 15 from I-68W today, there was a nice big gate saying "ROAD CLOSED" today. I would have gotten out and hiked in, but this was the first gate, leaving me like 6-8 miles to actually get to the climbing areas and i just didn't feel like doing that and possibly getting fined for entering the park when it was closed.

So with that, and no great stories of climbing to share, I will take my leave. I do promise that one day soon I will make it back to the Tilted Tree Corridor.
