La Pedriza de Manzanares
Saturday 7 o'clock once again, I'm taking the breakfast at home in Toledo and getting ready my boulder stuffs and my inseparable mate, Marley (my dog). Looking for a perfect day, one hundred twenty kilometers driving separate Toledo from the paradise, La Pedriza. Perfect! Today me and 10 mates will go there, and I'm sure today will be a great day.
Do you want to report news from the bouldering community?
We are looking for news collectors all over the world. Wouldn't it be interesting to know what is happening in the bouldering community on the other side of the planet? What is going on in Peru? Has anyone found a new area in Kenya? Are there any new Access problems in the huge Rocklands area? Most likely someone wants to know what is going on in your country!
Our goal is to have a steady news flow at the NEWS section sometime in the future.
