Today Jay and Lee tackle your latest crop of listener questions! Tune in for their take on route names, bolting techniques, what makes a ‘boulder problem’, and more. Plus, the guys go deeper on the stewardship they believe is necessary to truly be considered a local, whether that be through man-hours or donations. 

Speaking of stewardship, if you’re local to Central New Hampshire make sure to check out www.centralnhclimbers.org to see how you can support climbing in the region.
