11-year-old Mirko Caballero blogs about the past two months which have taken him from the Red River Gorge to Smith Rock to Pinnacles National Monument, a series of trips that saw him redpoint a couple of 5.14s, flash some 5.13s and lay the groundwork for what promises to be a very promising future.  I think we’re going to be hearing a lot more about this kid in the coming years…

DPM seems to have the youth beat covered pretty well these days with stories about 14 year-old Stefan Lavender climbing 5.14a in Ten Sleep, the Raboutou kids (and parents) climbing strong in France, 10 year-old Mirko Caballero climbing 5.13 at the Jailhouse and 10 year-old Cameron Hörst onsighting 5.13a at Shelf Road.
