Stone Fort Bouldering: A Comprehensive Guide to the Boulder Problems of "Little Rock City"

The Stone Fort, also known as "Little Rock City," is one of the finest bouldering areas in the country. It is located on the broad flat top of Mowbray Mountain, in the forest next to Montlake Golf Course, just outside the southern climbing mecca of Chattanooga, Tennessee. The hundreds of boulders are made of bullet hard grey and orange Cumberland sandstone which have eroded over the course of geologic time into some of the most interesting and unique formations known to boulderers. Known for its deep and narrow corridors and house-sized blocks, the Stone Fort is waiting for you to come and explore it.Stone Fort Bouldering is the first comprehensive guidebook to this amazing area. With close to 700 problems documented and described, there are literally hundreds of problems included in print for the first time. Presented in the highly visual and colorful format of Greener Grass Publishing, first time visitors and locals alike will have no problem using the maps, photos, and descriptions within to find where they are, where they want to go, what they are looking at, or where is the best place for them to climb. Although it now serves as the final destination for the popular Triple Crown Bouldering Series, the Stone Fort has been closed to the public for the majority of its history. Climbers working in conjunction with the Southeastern Climbers Coalition (SCC) were able to open a dialogue with the land owners which ultimately resulted in the public climbing access that climbers enjoy there today. Greener Grass Publishing respects the efforts of these people, and the continued efforts of the SCC to champion the climbing access concerns of the Southeastern Climbing community. As a token of appreciation for these efforts, and in order to help the SCC finance its never ending mission, Greener Grass Publishing pledges that 5% of the sales of this book will be donated to the SCC.
