New column on dirtbagging
|
Since we can't afford the ad space here at MP, figured I'd use the forum to announce that we've developed a new column on dirtbagging: Modern Dirtbags. |

This article made its way to Reddit the other day; that's where I originally read it. Great post! |

Is the article written for a ninth grade audience? Seems basic and simplistic with tips like, "Avoid places where you have to drive an hour (or more) to climb" and "get a flexible job" and "follow your heart". |

For a truly personal and introspective look at the highs and lows of dirtbagging I like this blog: jamesclucas.blogspot.com/ I wish James would write more...Ninth graders need to climb too bra. Actually yes, the article was written for a general audience. James does write a lot. I agree I like his stuff too. I think he just has a new website now: thewalkingmonkey.com/ Check it out! |

Really great perspective. There are some total gem observations here. I enjoyed the article very much, maybe because I could relate to so much of it? Very practical and normal for a climber like me. |
