Rockfest 2016 was the best yet! Over 200 climbers from around the PNW came out to Leavenworth for a weekend of community and competition. Local guidebook author Kelly Sheridan presented a brief history of Leavenworth bouldering, the NOrthwest Mountain School provided the clinics, Jessica Campbell guest starred in a her clinic, and money was raised for the AAC and the Leavenworth Mountain Association. Thanks to all the sponsors and participants for coming out! See you next year.
