Boston area recreational tree climbers

We're called BARC, let's climb some trees!

Changed the climb day to Sunday to get better weather. This is going to be a woods climb south of Boston, we'll be using advanced climbing techniques so this is for experienced climbers only.

PM me or reply to thread if you'd like to climb.

Hey moss,
I might be interested in climbing on Sat. Where are you planning on climbing?

I don't have a specific location yet. If I get some new climbers wanting to go up it will be in a park near or in Jamaica Plain. If it's more experienced climbers I have some interesting tall trees in woods near Boston. If you want to do something in Rhode Island I'm open to that as well.

I'll start brainstorming for a spot. Do you know about how many people there will be?

Right now it's just me, and you. I have plenty of good climbs around Boston, or Blue Hills Reservation for example, not too bad a drive for you but if you have something preferably in woods in your general area that's fine too.

I'm thinking of shifting the climb to Sunday, will be a little less cold and less wind. As currently projected the wind chill is going to be significant on Saturday.

Definitely climbing on Sunday morning, will be the better of the two weekend days for hanging out in a tree

Sunday works for me too. Blue hills sound pretty good! Real easy drive for me.

Let me know what's a good time for you to meet, 10:00 am works for me but earlier or later is fine too if you want to sleep later. I'll PM you the meeting location. This will be tall white pines, good chance to work on some SRT if you'd like to.

When you're logged in look at the top of page, click on the message icon. I've moved it to 11:00, meeting at Houghton's Pond parking lot, Hillside St. Milton, BlueHills Reservation. Exit 3 off 93 north (actually going east at that point)

Three BARCs had a great climb today in a fine white pine with a view of Boston in the distance. The city looked like a small patch of skyscrapers in a vast woods. Wishful thinking. I'll post some pics later.
