| My old set-up for the wall...holds have changed around now.

| Having a little fun on the roof...it's not actually snowing, its a closed room with a lot of chalk, which apparently reacts well to camera flashes.

The holds have moved around, and theres more now, I'm just re-arranging for new routes as cabin fever comes full swing.
Slightly overhung except the 3' vertical below the left side.

All of these are great, amazing what some brain power can do in the right direction.
Now if we could direct all that to a comprehensive wilderness management plan that we would all agree on and shove through the NPS/BLM red tape...
Sorry, was dreaming for a sec ;)
Awesome walls everyone! |

A lot of these holds are actually incut medium jugs. I do need to get some larger holds as I'm just getting back into climbing after 6 months off and the 30 degree overhang is pretty hard right now. |

Started as a guy's basement woody, gradually grew, and for the last couple years he's gotten enough in cooperative members' fees to rent a small garage space in a back alley. One of the best training facilities I've seen, and still has more of a home woody vibe to it. From a recent comp:
I thought I recognized that place... |

| Looks nice. Are the green holds a route? I use color of holds for making routes on my walls. Same make and model for texture and design continuity throughout the climb. That way it mimics a real route on same stone all the way.
4 ft. panels I presume? Looks great. |

Yeah, they kinda make a route. This was my first route, which I wanted to be a circuit for as close to ARC climbing that I make. I'm yet to top out with holds as I do not have sufficient padding so far (I just have one bouldering pad). I figure a fall with my hands at 12ft is enough for now. I ran out of green but kept the holds the same manufactuer and texture. Should be able to fit six or seven different problems with the holds I have (V0- to V2). And yeah, the panels are 4x8 each. |

This is the current state of my garage wall. I built it in 3 installments, and now I'm pretty much out of room. It is about 32 feet wide total and bout 10.5 feet high. The only thing left is to connect the 40 degree wall with the vertical wall. |

| great looking wall David. complete with parallettes I see :)
do you have a work bench on the back of the 40 degree wall? |

| Good eye on the parallettes. I haven't used those much lately, but my kids love to play on them. On the back of the 40 degree wall is a shelf for storage. I could use it as a work bench, though. |

| I just moved and had to leave my woodie behind. I think Im going the lazy mans route this time and getting one of these boulderboards
Should be good for HIT strips, systems holds, rock rings, and Ill figure out a way to still use my beastmakers on it. Collapses too!

| Just finished it this weekend, though since I didn't realize that holds would take a while to get, its still pretty bare.
Its pretty much Metolius plans, but with a different design on the kickboard, plus a 24" roof. T-nuts on overlapping 8" grids.

Backcountry.com can get holds to you super fast for pretty cheap. Selection is limited but usually takes just 3 days to ship to Colorado.
So ill holds and Three ball climbing (plus some others) generally have all of their holds already made and they ship out fast too.
Awesome garage wall! |

| Another hint here: In pic shown, I'm guessing that lone hold is a great 'launcher' for dyno's. Be sure to back that t-nut up with a chunk of plywood like 5" by 5", a washer and extra nut. A couple years ago a big dude blew the hold right off the dyno wall at the Red River Gorge Rocktober'fest event. A t-nut can only take so many hard pulls on a steep board. |
