Climbing Video: Nic Oklobzija Climbing Chumscrubber (V11) At Way Lake
The area around Bishop, CA is well known for being a great cold weather destination with tons of bouldering to be had at the Buttermilks, The Happys and elsewhere. What is not as well known is that there is at least some summertime bouldering to be had as well with the one area getting most of the attention lately being Way Lake.
Located near Mammoth Lakes, CA, the rock at Way Lake looks eerily similar to the rock found in RMNP, and it is apparently extremely comfortable to climb on. To give you a better idea of what the climbing at Way Lake is like, here is a video of Nic Oklobzija making quick work of the 3rd ascent (after Isaac Caldiero and Jeff Sillcox) of the area’s hardest boulder, Chumscrubber (V11):
