More information:
I'm not the greatest climber, but I sure love to do it. For me, moving over rock and ice is training for mountaineering. After finishing the Colorado 14ers in 1991, I didn't think I wanted to climb from a list again, but I wasn't getting out as much. I did Rainier, the Grand Teton and Denali, but now I'm working on the Top 125 Named peaks in Rocky Mtn Nat'l Park. I was fortunate to climb Lobuche East in Nepal and at Railay, Thailand in November of 2007. I've been going down to the Ouray Ice Park for the last 13 seasons with a group of friends and I manage to get out on the ice a dozen times a year if I'm lucky. Over the years (about 23), I have been to Yosemite, Joshua Tree, Smith Rock, Shelf, Red Rocks, Tahquitz and most of the local Colorado crags. I suppliment my outdoor rock climbs with weekly sessions in the gym. If I could climb outside every week, I'd never go back in the gym again, but it does help my strength and technique.
