Good news and bad
Unfortunately… I am unable to find a rock wall in Baton Rouge, what’s up with this town?!? However, there is one in Slidell and one in New Orleans… Anybody up for some rock climbing this summer? (I’ve ALWAYS wanted to)
Also I went ahead and printed out the maps for the BREC bike trails, did you know that the “Comite River Trail” one is the smaller one (3 miles), the “Hooper Road Trail”, which begins in Sharon Hills (No, not that Sharon Hill) Subdivision is much larger (5 miles). Do bring your mosquito spray for the “Hooper Road Trail” however, that’s where the swamp is
The two “Trails” connect however, so if you rode everything you could get in 8 miles. That, however, would be stretching it a bit.
Looking back at the maps, Amber and I mostly rode Advanced Trails.
We’re not very advanced, however :D. comitetrailmap.pdf hoopertrailmap.pdf
PS. As I commented several times to Amber as I was teetering at the edge of what I liked to call “cliffs”, bike helmets are required for this fine sport.
That is interesting! So it wasn’t 8miles, I am dissappointed now. We went how many miles… including the jaunt from the road back. It was cliffs and reveans. Spiders, killer rabbits and roots, wrouts, mug and steep inclines… So when are we going again?

Hey Holly, It may not be a big wall, but the YMCA by our house has a tred wall. Its pretty fun, Wes and I did it one day. It works just like a treadmill, as you climb up, it moves and goes round and round. You can make it go fast or slow. Wes had a hard time with it because he has enormous feet.
