Why do you enjoy PA bouldering? What sets PA bouldering apart from some other areas?

Discovery.

PA has so much rock spread thoughout the state, and so many types. This really helps with the crowds, so many spots to just get away and hang with friends. 

Willing to share one memorable bouldering experience that embodies “community”?

It seems to me bouldering in general embodies community, not really into bouldering alone. Climbing has brought some of the best people into my life.
It has been really cool watching the Mt. Gretna community grow. I remember when it was hard to get people out there, amazing what it has become.
