Here's a throwback by one of climbing's stylish hipsters, @dscottclarkphoto. ⁣ ⁣Okay, a lot has changed in a few years, especially recently with COVID and all, and my perspectives have changed a lot, too. ⁣ ⁣Let me just say this: bouldering is not real climbing. There, I said it! Real climbing is trad. Real climbing is where you haul many, many pounds of cumbersome metal swingy things around your hips, regale everyone with stories of questionable and unfortunate decision-making but sell it as "adventure", and where the more time spent hiking, hauling and rappelling than actually climbing the more badass it is. (Edit: I did not mean to offend anyone, I'm totally not serious, in reality I am still more of a boulderer and sport climber after 22 years. 😆) ⁣ ⁣Back to the photo...There's another throwback (on bolts, also not really climbing) over in @accessfund's takeover by this D Scott Clark hooman! I say you go right over there and consider becoming an Access Fund member, if you're not already. And if you are, COVID elbow-bump! ⁣ ⁣And hey - if you can't climb hard right now from all this COVID stuff, it's okay to crimp like a kitten. Welcome to trad climbing. 🤟😜 #realclimberscrimplikeakitten
Thank you to my soul sisters. Remember when we taught a free women's climbing group every Sunday for three months? Wasn't it mind-blowing to experience this motivated dynamic of women sharing stories, and encouraging one another to rope up below the active volcano? When you followed up 5 pitches for your first time? When we swung in the dark looking for rap anchors, off-route? When every conversation fed our soul, fed our fire, until late in the night when the hostel guests, refuge wayfarers were asleep, and we snuck out in the dark, and were climbing in the rain? And we'll explore the wild peaks again, knowing that a few thousand miles won't ever touch the blistering, bright enthusiuasm of our misadventures. Thank you to all the soul sisters out there.
We miss parks, friends...and we'll get by. These IG ads tho 🍪 🍪 🍪
