a little Bouldering

The boys chose rock climbing for their "sport" this fall. They are practicing the technique called "Bouldering" here. According to Wikipedia, "bouldering is a style of rock climbing undertaken without a rope and normally limited to very short climbs over a crash pad (Their mom thanks you crash pad!) so that a fall will not result in serious injury (At least let's hope. With these boys anything is possible.). It is typically practiced on large natural boulders or artificial boulders in gyms and outdoor urban areas. However, it may also be practiced at the base of larger rock faces (Sorry boys. Mom is vetoing this option), or even on buildings or public architecture."
