I wanted to let you know about an Adopt a Crag event happening in your area.
Where: Sourland Mountain Preserve – Somerset County, NJ
When: Saturday & Sunday, April 20-21
Details: The 8th Annual Sourlands Smackdown!!
The Adopt A Boulder (trails day) has been rescheduled from Fall 2012 due to Hurricane Sandy. It will now be held on Saturday, April 20th, and the Sourlands Smackdown bouldering competition will be held on Sunday, April 21st. Bonus points will be given out to climbers that participate on the trails day event.
This is the first year the Sourlands Smackdown has been added to the already successful Adopt A Boulder! This will be New Jersey’s ONLY outdoor bouldering competition! Climbers that are competing on Sunday, can receive bonus points for volunteering on Saturday’s trail work day. We will be building a connecting trail through a bouldering area, maintaining existing trails, and cleaning up other bouldering areas and landing zones. The Sourland Mountain Preserve is located 45 minutes from Philadelphia and New York City in central New Jersey.

Every hour of time you donate to a crag helps show land managers that climbers are responsible stewards. Grab some friends and a pair of work gloves and spend a day giving back to the sport you love! We hope to see you there.
Thanks for your support,
