It’s spring time in Leavenworth and that means the cliffs and boulders that are snow covered in winter are coming into season. I got to chance to follow local rockstars Jasmine Hutchinson and Ryan Paulsness around on Friday April 13th at the popular Mad Meadows bouldering area.

Leavenworth has long been the place for practicing the climbing arts on the many crags that litter both the Icicle and Tumwater Canyons but Leavenworth is now also becoming a nationally recognized area for climbing hard boulder problems. The bouldering community could soon out number roped climbers in the valley.

It seems there will be many new boulders to discover in the area for a long time to come and the season is here! Get out and scrub some new lines and enjoy the majestic beauty that we are gifted with here in the valley. Thanks to Jasmine and Ryan for carrying all that heavy camera gear!
