Join the Faulted Geologist in Exploring the Midwest
Fauted Geologist welcomes you to the Kansas City hub for rock climbing routes, bouldering spots, and mountain bike trails. Find new routes and submit your favorite spots.
This site began as a place to put my Field Methods course work up. My fascination with biking and climbing took over, and a weblog of my adventures was added.
Please enjoy these places respectfully by taking nothing but pictures and leaving nothing but footprints, or as the French say, ne prenez que des photos et ne rien laisser que des empreintes.
Buy and read the Climber's Guide to the Midwest's Metamorphic Forms by Marcus Floyd, and read more on the Adventures page.
Kansas City rock climbers need to unite if we are ever to climb with the best. Join us for an event at the Ibex climbing gym in August 2011. We are planning on a Friday climb from 8 or 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. with free beverages like coffee and tea from Solar Tea. Climbers can meet new people near their skill level and plan expeditions.
The goal is to start something like the Outdoor Games here in the Midwest, U.S.A. where sports are combined with a festival and nightly entertainment from DJs and bands. If you know of any areas conducive to an event, let us know.
