ABS Comp in Carbondale Saturday

It’s that time of year again. Time to pull as hard as you can on little pieces of plastic, and this Saturday the Carbondale Rec Center is hosting its annual ABS comp. There will be 40 brand spanking new problems, from V-easy to V-so-hard-it-makes-my-fingers-ache-just-looking-at-it for you to test your mettle (and finger strength) on. The youth (14 & under) climb first, from 4 to 7pm, and then adults are up from 7 to 10pm. In addition to a bunch of great new problems set by the finest route setters in the valley, there will be a raffle with a variety of prizes from sponsors both near and far. The comp is $20 for ABS members, $25 for nonmembers. See you there!
