Rock Climbing at ERock with Rock About

On May 15 and 16, I went camping with my boy scout troop at eRock.  We went backpacking into the primitive area in the back and camped at Walnut Spring and Moss Lake.  It is a beautiful place.  The trail was not tough at all.  We took over 60 people into the primitive area and all had a blast.

On Saturday, we went rock climbing with Rock About.  They are a great outfitter and did an awesome job helping us learn the right way to rock climb.  I finished the entire Rock Climbing Merit Badge.  I would highly encourage any troop to use Rock About if you are at eRock or any of the nearby parks with rock climbing options.  Adam and the crew did a great job.  Thanks.

Here some pics that my dad took while I was there.

Go rock climbing with Rock About if you get the chance.  You will love it.

I love erock and want to go back and spend more time hiking and backpacking around the park.  My dad and I camped right on Moss Lake under some awesome oak trees.  It was the best site.  We had a breeze the entire time.
Go out to eRock and hike into the back primitive area.  You will be glad you did.
