New Design

Posted October 10, 2007 at 6:47 am · Comments { 5 } ·

Ever since I switched to a WordPress blog I was never really happy with the template that I had chosen. Then I came across the redesigned Allclimbing.com and realized that this was the sort of template that I had been wanting all along. I will probably make some more tweaks but this is more or […]

Things Can Only Get Better…

Below is the extended forecast for New Paltz, NY.  This is not the kind of forecast you usually want to see when you are going on a climbing trip where your main climbing days are Thursday through Saturday.  Looks like we have no choice but to break out the headlamps and start climbing when we […]

The Learning Curve

Posted October 3, 2007 at 5:39 pm · Comments { 8 } ·

I spend a great deal of my time with young climbers. Most have boundless energy and seemingly unlimited potential as climbers. Despite all their physical strengths, I cannot spend enough time stressing the importance of learning as much as they can each time they touch rock (or plastic). While it is good to focus on […]

It’s been about 7 months since I brought my unhealthy obsession with climbing to the internet.  I don’t think I ever thought that I would still be injured after all this time, but I also don’t think I ever thought that I would stick to updating this site and expanding on it the way I […]

Giving Back to the Kids

Posted August 8, 2007 at 8:37 pm · Comments { 0 } ·

One of the harder aspects of my being injured this past 6 months has been how to channel my obsession for climbing into something more productive than just aimlessly surfing 8a.nu scorecards.  Besides this blog (which has turned into a great outlet), I have also been able to focus a great deal of time on […]
