More Info

I teach rock climbing at a local rec center and have been climbing since I was 12. I'm a good belayer with plenty of lead experience, I use the PBUS system and a grigri. I love getting outdoors and just climbing routes, mostly sport single pitch or multipitch. Down to send it!

● Dog Bite
Feb 26, 2026 · Lead / Flash. AB prehung draws, chimney crux section pretty fun. Watch out for crappy rock band above the first anchor, AB pulled volleyball size rock out of the wall which luckily landed to my left while belaying. Top adventure climbing part pretty fun tho. Got rope stuck on pull, AB led it again on other end of rope to free it. Fun route but I guess kinda sketch. Maybe just climb to first anchor.

● Faulk You
Feb 5, 2026 · TR. Cool fun hard face climb section neat feet and quartz crystals pinches. Fell 1st time staying r, fell 2nd time staying left, got it 3rd t staying middle than crazy dino to right might've French freed the rope a tad. Staying on face instead of r arete for final bolt seems improbable.
