Rocks And Rock Climber In Gochang Area, Korea.

in #busy6 years ago

One of my colleague shouted “look ! there is a interesting rock on the mountain”.
So we looked at there he indicated.
Yes, that was an unexpected appearance.
As I told in previous postings, this area was designated as the National Geology Park.
The unique geological features were scattered widely in this area.
So only you could notice the unique place when you concentrated your surroundings in carefully.

My colleague found out an unique features by the road.
Interesting thing was that unique rock he found out was changing its appearances according to the directions.

At first it looked like an Ancient Greek Soldier.

Last appearance was as same as a man who was thinking something deeply.

Near the rock, there was a cliff on the mountain.
I thought that that cliff must be an awesome place for rock climbing. Once I was a rock climber, I was pleased to see that kinds of rock cliff. It was so beautiful.

I took full panorama of the rocks what we saw.

The rocks in Korea mountains are mainly granite, so it is very nice place for rock climbing.
The granite is hard enough for climbing.
Unlike other countries, the rock climbers can enjoy climbing all place in Korea.
Even there are really great place for climbing in Seoul metropolitan.
You can get there in 30 minutes by subway.
Next time, I’d like to introduce the climbing site of Seoul.

After a while, I found the rock cliff by the road. There were the rock climbers on the cliff.
It was so nice to see the climbing scene.
It seemed that there was not easy place of climbing.
It looked like 5.11 grade or more, not easy course.

This scene reminded me of my young days.
It was pleasure for me to look at those young climbers.

If you are the rock climber, it is very nice choice to enjoy climbing here.

Thank you for posting @slowwalker,nim.

Lovely photographs and information of these interesting rock formations.

Yes....a Greek soldier indeed.

Yes very happy to see these rock climbers taking the challenge...good for them.

Wishing you and yours all the best....please give our kind regards to your mum.

Cheers.

Thank you @bluejay.
My mom will like your words.

I think its part of a mountain which gets eroded from the sides due to wind with time. Can take millions of years to get into that shape.

Yes, the only greatest is wind and time.

It looks like fun to climb those granite mountain rocks @slowwalker and if I were just an able man I could go in places like that because I also love adventures too. Here in my country we just have a limited mountains to climb and are solely for hiking.

I wish you climb and hike again.

an amazing rock and the exciting climbing experience to see the young climbers . i just climbed the mountain a few days ago , wonderfu experience that i have got . thanks for your sharing @slowwalker.

Thank you for your comment.

I love adventure and that rock looked absolutely fantastic

The photo are make a great deal

Hi :-))
Very beautiful photo and interesting post
Have a nice day :-))

That's a very interesting Rock and some great fun you guys had there. Am so much afraid of rock climbing, i dare not try for the fear of falling off

They apply many security majors before climbing. Although its very tough and requred lots of enery and power in arms.

hahaha
everbody, even climbers have a same fear like you and me

As a newcomer, I am honored to see your blog.
Please give me more suggestions in the future.

Thank you for your visiting

I am very much went in to fantasy, I have seen AVATAR like scenery from your picture ,breathtaking experience where I must visit this place. Thank you for sharing @slowwalker

These are some stunning rock formations conjured up by the Mother Nature herself. Awesome photos. Reminds me of
the Adrspach-Teplice Rocks we have here in the Czech Republic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adr%C5%A1pach-Teplice_Rocks

Adršpach-Teplice Rocks
The Adršpach-Teplice Rocks (Czech: Adršpašsko-teplické skály, German: Adersbach-Weckelsdorfer Felsenstadt) are an unusual set of sandstone formations covering 17 km2 in northeastern Bohemia, Czech Republic.
They are named after two nearby municipalities: Adršpach, and Teplice nad Metují.
The site was apparently a regional destination during the 19th and early 20th century, as attested by the varied language of stone inscriptions on the site, and surviving postcards.
The rocks have been protected as a national nature reserve since 1933, and since 1991 the whole adjacent region of Broumovsko has enjoyed the status of protected landscape area.

@ slowwalker Have immence point for eyes cooling. A mountain is a huge landform that stretches over the encompassing area in a constrained territory, more often than not as a pinnacle. A mountain is for the most part more extreme than a slope. Mountains are shaped through structural powers or volcanism.

I feel some thing greatness in the mountain.
Umm it seemed mountains were the result of the great power of Nature

Hello @slowwalker.... I'm fan of you.. Your all post is very good ..i proud of you

Nature it is so amazing. It does things that will keep surprising us :) and that moutain climbing must be real fun and exciting... but too muxh exercise for me. Lol

I would love to see the view from above of all these formations, only at my age I am not in adequate physical condition to climb.

Yes, unfortunately, me too.

Woww .. amazing place to travel ..
Nd hve tracking ..
Beautiful greeny ..
This place would be the best for trekking in Korea ..
I would love to visit here ..

Thank you for the information

You will like there.
I could see myself in this area.
It was a nice opportunity

At first it looked like an Ancient Greek Soldier.

@slowwalker, Absolutely yep...It's amazing to see huge highest rock mountain. Hard work to climb mountain to climbers with massive trees. But seems they're doing their duty nice and hardly. Full panorama view so impressive. Landscaping area stunning totally.

Thank you so much

unique and beautiful rocks. very in demand by rock climbers. very nice photo @slowwalker

I’m a a climber myself and I loved your post this is a beautiful area. Thank you for sharing!

각도에 따라 모습이
달리 보이는 것이 흥미롭습니다.
암벽을 타는 분들에게는 정말 최적의 장소인 것 같습니다.
사진으로만 봐도 너무 멋진 곳임을 알겠습니다^^

춘천에도 용화산에 암벽할 곳이 있지요

@slowwalker lovely place awesome nature creativity

que buenas imágenes, muy expresivas ,

This look brilliant yet vulnerable, I hope there are enough safety measures being followed , A sure shot thing to be tried though

山高,不过人心;石坚,不如意志。
The mountain is high, but the human mind is high; the stone is very strong, but the human will is more determined.

Happy to play!

good perspective on the first photo, it looks like a dinosaur.

very unique shape of the rock indeed and beautiful shots I have to say

What's so special of granite mountains for climgin?

태국도 암벽등반 할 곳이 많이 있답니다. 요즘엔 어깨에 문제가 있어서 등반을 안하는 일인입니다.

태국 좋지요.
부상당하지 않도록 정말 조심해야 합니다.
저는 부상을 많이 당해서 지금은 못합니다.

저도 어깨를 다쳐서!! 제 작은 소망이 자전거 라이딩 후 해변가 절벽에서 등반하고 바다에서 스쿠버 다이빙하는 것 이었습니다.

I think the statue looks like Moai 🗿 statue in Easter Island, Chile.

Yes, they are similar each other

a very perfect post and your blog is amazing. not much I can say. and i will support you @slowwalker

@slowwalker
Very intresting rock and exciting climbing experience.

Wow the mountains are really high the best thing is that you can scale them, I imagine that the view from above some of them must be fantastic, the photos are very beautiful :)

yes, but view on the cliff seems a little bit better than the view from the summit

Hi @slowwalker, Apparently you are rock climber yes, it's amazing because I'm not capable

hahaha
I was a climber, before the injury

Why are you injury, did you fail when climbing the mountain? I'm sad to hear you injury

Beauty of nature. It's a beautiful shots as you have captured the photo from different angles :)

Rock climbing is indeed an amazing adventure. these rocks arestrong and aesthetically appealing in every way. nature is amazing and your photography skills too!

How much I love rock climbing, unfortunately my stamina needs more improvement :/

OMG! I would like to try it someday. Beautiful mountains.

Fascinating geology, you have there. That bulbous rock formation is particularly interesting. Do people climb that one, as well? I suppose it would be difficult. In the third photo, it almost looks like a head looking off to the left.

it must be one of the most difficult course.

Very beautiful photos. Good luck to you and Love.

Очень красивые фото. Удачи Вам и Любви.

I love rocks and mountains! thanks for sharing. Good job!

Que bello amigo eso es parte de la naturaleza y de la destreza suya para escalar

Wow, my respect for those who climb rocks since I consider it to be full dangerous.

Thanks for your beautiful photos. 🤗

Thank you so much

it looks like a big head that clump of rock on the third pic
