The first time I went climbing my parents put me in a backpack and rapped into the now defunct Cochiti Mesa. I grew up digging holes in the shredded tire padding at the original gym. When I went to college I stopped climbing, but now I'm making up for lost time. I love getting new people into climbing and talking about gear. When I'm not climbing I like snowboarding, hiking, gardening, history podcasts, and cooking.

Reply: Toproping solo? Dynamic or static
