Second Annual Pine Mountain Pulldown
September 11th – September 13th 2009
The Pine Mountain Pulldown is California’s premier outdoor bouldering competition and festival. Pine Mountain holds some of the best sandstone bouldering on the West Coast; featuring over 500 established boulder problems and dozens of projects.
The Pine Mountain Pulldown is designed to be a fun gathering for West Coast climbers, instill environmental stewardship and be beneficial for the climbing community as a whole.
The festival at Pine Mountain Inn offers camping, live music an outdoor dyno comp, vender booths and the West Coast premier of the 2009 Reel Rock Tour.
You can register for the event as a whole or for the festival alone. See the registration page for detailed information. There is limited space at the competition site so sign up early. The festival at The Pine Mountain Inn is open to 500 people.
HOW DOES THIS EVENT WORK?
The Pine Mountain Pulldown takes place in two locations. The bouldering competition and the Crag Clean Up are held at the top of Pine Mountain. All other activities take place at the Pine Mountain Inn, located about 9 miles away, including
- Live Music
- Movies
- Dyno Competition
- Sponsor booths
- Camping
Participants will be bused to and from Pine Mountain on Saturday for the Bouldering competition.
Your competition and/or festival registration includes camping, access to the music, movies, sponsor goodies and all the fun for 3 days and 2 nights. What a Deal!!!
There is nothing around Pine Mountain for miles. We will have food for sale so bring some cash but also think about bringing some of your own food and water. Most people will be camping at the Pine Mountain Inn so bring a tent and sleeping bag.
With high gas prices and limited parking we ask that you carpool. In-fact we will be holding a carpool raffle for a brand new pair of Mad Rock Climbing Shoes. The driver gets one raffle ticket per-passenger. So if you have a car and you drive two of your friends you get two raffle tickets.
Please pay very close attention to anything that could become trash (energy bar wrappers, water bottles, tape, etc). There will be composting, recycling and garbage receptacles at the event but we ask that you PACK IT IN, PACK IT OUT.
We will be enforcing a no disposable cup policy at the event. At check in all participants will receive a souvenir Pint Glass to quench their thirst needs. Re-usable water bottles are highly recommended.
After the Saturday night festivities don’t just take off. Help ensure Pine Mountain will remain a bouldering jewel and join us for our Crag Clean Up. Please click here to sign up for the Access Fund Adopt-a-Crag.
