NY Times On Climbing Restrictions In Cuba

Posted July 6, 2012 at 6:10 am · Comments { 5 } ·

I’m not sure what the average New York Times reader cares about rock climbing restrictions in any country let alone Cuba, but I think climbers will find this piece by Alex Lowther interesting:

In March, one guard, a congenial man in a green button-down shirt, said: “We don’t like to say climbing is prohibited. Climbing isn’t prohibited, because prohibited is an ugly word.

”

But may one climb?

“No,” he said.

Circling The Drain

Posted July 4, 2012 at 11:36 am · Comments { 2 } ·

Will Gadd with some food for thought as we ‘Mericans celebrate our independence to do (and eat) pretty much whatever we set our minds to:

Things get real clear real quick: Eat shitty food and avoid exercise and you’ll stop moving and get larger. And once you get past a certain point it’s a lot harder to move (my hero lady aside). And if you stop moving you die.

We’re all circling the drain every day of our lives; move faster and you stay farther from the hole for longer, like a marble in the sink.

But making time to breathe can be hard. You have to fight for it. I’m proud of the times I win the fight to breathe hard.

Webb Warriors Up

Posted July 3, 2012 at 7:11 am · Comments { 1 } ·

Jimmy Webb has done the third ascent after Daniel Woods and Dave Graham of Warrior Up at Lincoln Lake, Mt. Evans, CO. Woods and Graham proposed V15 for the line but as is often the case, Webb suggested on his 8a scorecard that the line might be a bit easier for someone with his height so he registered it at V14.
