Bouldering in Wales. Who Knew?
Where do sculpted, unclimbed sandstone blobs fill the beaches and vicious limestone pack the forests? Wales, apparently.
If you plan on watching more than a few seconds of “Underestimated,” you might as well book your ticket to Wales first.
Boulderers will find ocean-carved sandstone with wrinkles and rails all over the country’s coastline, and hard pulling on steep limestone elsewhere — evidently without looking all that hard.

Check it out, get stoked, and figure out your plans.
