More Info
As an older climber, I definitely find myself more drawn to certain styles of climbing (slabs , vertical crimping, and aretes) than others (bouldery/dynamic, overhung, roofs, cracks, etc.).

The Jungles of Arkansas
May 30, 2025 · Not a fan of this one at all— unlike the other two very enjoyable 10s here. Broke off two holds causing two falls. Steep and awkward dynamic movement + choss always equals no bueno!
