| Description: |
On this web site, I describe climbs at City of Rocks, Idaho; Yosemite, Tuolomne, and Lovers Leap, California; Indian Creek and desert towers, Utah; Squamish, BC; Devils Tower, wyo; Portrero Chico, Mexico; France, Italy, Spain and other places I’ve climbed.
Climbing magazines and websites focus on the latest 5.15, hard boulder problem, steep waterfall, or unclimbed Himalayan north face. If you want to figure out where to take your parents climbing, or where to teach your kids to climb, look at my book or blog.
I also discuss skiing in Colorado and ski exercises to prepare for your ski vacation. |
