Castle Rock

  What a find! We had spotted some pictures on the facebook page of one of Nicki's work colleagues and vowed to make the effort to go for ourselves. It was a great Saturday afternoon, shortly after the first sprinkling of snow for the season. The boulder formation is just outside the Porters Pass ski resort and is about an hours drive away, so we slipped out after dropping Georgia off and finishing the morning grocery shop.

We had a picnic when we arrived of hot soup and crusty bread, with fruit and biscuits and watched teh small groups of people bouldering before we set off. The soup was welcoming as there was a chill to the air out of the sun. We spent a couple of hours there, walking and climbing the different formations. We'll definately go again. Pictures can be found on the Castle Rock Ablum
