Hey Tanya! I have been climber a total of 18 years. Started at age 16 pretty much climb every chance I got! The past 9 though my climbing was very minimal because of the 6+ hours to real rock! AHHH!!! Lack of a quality gym did not help either. So surfing was my outlet. Sweet, but not near my love of climbing. So I have lots of skill and technique, but right now endurance is killing me! So frustrating! Luckily I have just as much fun on 5.7 as I do on 5.12! I climb for the love of it! I am teacher and summer is coming soon! So I plan to climb LOTS!

Climbing is addicting, especially after you start leading! Climbing shaped my life and had a big part in who I am today. Welcome to the club! :)

I teach Physical Education at Mountain Vista.

Love the incline pic! No where is the one prooving you made it to the top?? ;-)
