More Info

I have a lot of trad experience, a full big wall rack, a haul bag and a portaledge. Hoping to do some small walls this summer. I'm the meantime, trying to crush some local sport routes. Working through all the 5.10s out by Mickey's and aiming for the easier 5.11s. My goal route for the summer is Flintstone Flyer 5.11b.
