The Pondering

A beautiful boulder that climbs very well, in a scenic location by the water. I just wish it was slightly longer! Backflag not necessary, that was me forgetting beta.

This is a **RE-RELEASE** and features an additional 8 boulder problems on sandstone. **DISCLAIMER** the paths to these boulders are still closed to my understanding and are potentially hazardous. Be smart and respectful. On December 9th 2020 I decided to do as many V5 boulder problems at the Niagara Glen as I could (according to what is a V5 in the most current guidebook. A few problems turned out easier then v5 and some turned out to maybe a bit harder than v5, as indicated by the + and -). The number turned out to be 38 total from 7:30am to 6:30pm. I was wrecked after this. I documented the time I sent each boulder as indicated in the bottom left corner before each boulder. V5 day lets goooooo! Thanks Cam, Sam and Rich for joining, helping with filming/spotting and dragging pads everywhere.
