Stone Fort (Little Rock City) Bouldering?
|
Anyone know where I can pick-up a guidebook? Checked the original publisher of the Wellman(sp?) book-no go....tried Amazon too.... Also, I've got one day Mid-April (hoping for no rain) to check this area out. Can you still rent a crash pad/chalk at the clubhouse? We're only in the area for 3 days, so won't be flying with much. Thanks for any/all info!! |
|
They sell the guidebook at the Club House at Stone Fort. Might want to call and check and see if they have any. Can't speak to the crash pad rental. |
|
The Stone Fort guide is now available here: http://www.rockerypress.com/ The clubhouse still does rent bouldering pads. Have fun. |
|
They sell them in the club house where you get your day pass for 30$. I bought one two weekends ago. |
|
Thanks all!. Ordered the book from Rockery....are you serious on the $30.00?? Now I'm curious on the day-pass price (I thought it was like $8-9 bucks), I guess I should check on the crashpad rentals....I don't anticipate that being cheap! Thanks! |
|
where are you coming in from and/or staying? there may be some other places close that you can rent pads at. gyms in Knoxville and Chat rent pads. |
|
Staying in Nashville and only driving down for 1 full day....don't really want to take too much extra time trying to find addn'l places and rent pads. The quicker and easier this is, the more I get to climb, which to me is worth a little extra $ (<a little that is...if we're talking stupid $, then no)!! |
|
SHIT...now I just realized it's more like 2.5 hours from Nashville...I SWEAR the first time I google mapped it, it said a little over an hour!! |

There's a great place in Chatty that rents crash pads. Accurately named "The Crash Pad" - a hostel geared towards people just like yourself if the drive is a little too long and you're looking to stay a night. Website says $12 a day for big pads, $8 for smaller ones. |
|
Pads from the hostel The Crash Pad are super nice. Massive Organic ones. They also have guidebooks there if you want to do Rocktown or Horsepens. |
|
Day pass is $8.75 |

Thanks everyone for your help!! Much appreciated and good karma. |

|
Let me know when you come down. I've got pads galore |
|
I know you already ordered your book, but maybe it’ll help someone else. I saw that Rock Creek outfitters in Cool Springs has the book for $25. |

Sorry, I misunderstood you. I can understand $30 for the guide...I thought you were saying it was $30 for a day pass!! HAHA |
