More Info

Originally from Seattle, I moved to Boulder in 2002 to pursue my passion for climbing. In 2013, my wife and I moved to Knoxville, TN so she could attend a Physician Assistant program at South College. The South was amazing, but we missed the West. So in 2016 we packed everything up and moved to Salt Lake City. Although I focus on sport climbing, I also boulder, and trad climb. I just love to try hard and go home sore and tired. Makes going to work a little easier.

First Blood
Jul 25, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. Last route of the day. Had to take off watch to use the jams. Tricky crack transition midway, then went way right at the crux. Felt like I did it wrong but it worked. With Leah, Ben and Murdy.

Jul 25, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. Great pocket sequence to a scrappy arete. Good warmup with shade on a hot summer day. With Ben, Leah and Murdy.

Eternal Flow
Jul 16, 2026 · Lead / Onsight. First pitch is ok. Second pitch has superb moves on ancient water ripples with bolts just far enough apart to grab your attention. Great after work adventure with Ben R.
