More Info
Trad is rad, ice is nice, and alpine is divine. In 2021 I was leading 5.11 OW in the Creek & .10+ in the Voo & was dabbling w/ 5.12 OWs. I'm softer these days, getting stronger on ice & ramping back up! I'm MUCH weaker on face climbing these days, getting comfier at C2+ & WI4 leading, but I wouldn't call myself a 'leader' at those ratings as I'm conservative about that stuff. Cordillera Blanca in 2023 was amazing. I gotta go back!
