Summer Updates

Over the past year and some, Idaho Public Television has been packing camera equipment into some of the most remote climbing areas in Idaho, as well as local Boise areas to present a fascinating "Climbing Idaho" segment on Outdoor Idaho. This week, I got an email from the producer who shared a link with me that you all should check out! The preview that includes 3 of our members climbing, Brad Brooks, Nicole Brown and Kaiya Bockino. They are featured in different areas of Idaho, and some footage of the Front

In other and incredibly exciting news, another of Boise's strongest has finished the 3rd ascent of Warpath at Castle Rocks. Matt Fultz topped out the boulder at around 7am on Sunday morning, giving him his first V14 send. He has an excellent writeup about the process that he went through over the last year of effort on the problem here at climbidaho Congrats to Matt, and good job in the video guys!

We are hosting the first ever 7 Deadly Sends Bouldering competition here on Friday, July 13th at 6 pm. Preregister and save a bunch of $$$. You can do so HERE Hope to see you all soon, and Happy Climbing!

New Beginnings

In an effort to bring more climbing media to you on a weekly basis, we are making this the official blog for the Boise Front! Facebook is a great way to update you on things happening around the gym, but there just isn't enough room to add all the photos and video that we want! Being able to keep y'all posted on what we are up to, bringing you tales of team trips to Riggins and the Sawtooths, and posting higher quality video and photos is what this will be all about. Each week, you will be able to find things that we think are cool, or important things to know about that are happening in Boise, and all over the world! You can also check up on things happening at our family of gyms, by clicking on the link at the sidebar for the Front SLC or Front Ogden! Keep checking in! For now, here is a little teaser of some Boise area climbers bouldering in the Sawtooths--from our friends at Climbidaho.com
