I hope that's dog sh*t
A short evening bouldering session with Joe in Morningside park. Started off traversing on man-made walls, where we had a bit of an odd exchange with some guy walking his dog, who asked us rather casually, "Do you smoke weed?". We went off in search of problems down by the pond. This first one tucked away just below the dog park. Nice and easy with big holds that topped out after 3-4 moves (starts on the little flake by the tree).
The next was just across from the baseball field (might actually be NYPD Goo as mentioned here). This time the shrubbery was trimmed, and we had a nice clean landing. Travels up the crack, with the right hand on slopers the whole way. Feet are really bad, so neither of us managed to top out, but it's definitely worth trying again.

Nice, guess Joe really missed his climbing. Is he gonna come on Thursday?
Is it high enough to invest in a pad? Would at least keep you from hitting the hypodermic needles...
Ya, he's up for Thursday.
A pad might be a good idea. I was telling Joe that the day I watched that video on street bouldering, I saw a woman walking off the subway with a crash pad strapped to her back.
The problems we were on didn't really need on, the bigger concern was the "face-to-rock" potential.
