Dan Brayack prefers sport climbing (he’s climbed 5.12d sport) but bouldering is a lifelong passion, especially technical slab, face, and gently overhanging face.  He has bouldered V6, and considers Cooper’s Rock his home.

Tim Keenan began climbing while attending West Virginia University and honed his skills at Cooper's Rock State Park. He enjoys all things sandstone, preferring roofs, bulges, and slightly overhung faces with bad holds.
