I was fortunate to experience the overly popular climbing in Rifle, CO. The scene there was something I had never experienced before. One of the things I noticed was that everyone had their project. The climbers only talked about projecting, and the way they spoke about their current project was as if they had some type of ownership for that one narrow strip of overhanging limestone on a particular cliff. I felt like an outcast because I never did adopt my own project in Rifle. I was new there and wanted to experience each cliff and sector before I dialed into one route for the rest of my existence. Let's just say that we moved from the area before I ever really joined that scene.
Here is a quickly shot and edited video of my friend climbing one of his projects:
