Have you ever walked past a massive rock in the woods and thought, "I wonder if I could climb that?" That's what bouldering is all about. No ropes or harness needed. Just you, your hands, some good rubber soled shoes, and the boulder.

In this segment from Borealis Season Three Episode Three, Aislinn learns about bouldering and gets some hands on experience with members of the Clifton Climbers Alliance.

Learn about the Clifton Climbers Alliance at cliftonclimbersalliance.org

Borealis is made possible through the generous support of our production sponsors The Nature Conservancy, the Maine Office of Outdoor Recreation, and Poland Spring, and our broadcast sponsors Evergreen Home Performance, Patriot Subaru, and Bangor Savings Bank, in addition to Maine Public's viewers and listeners.
