Oh my god… today is the day of towers… I can barely move… do my fingers even work? Can I even get out of bed?… What time is it… *alarm* … damn… you have to be kidding… Nestled in the quiet valley of Grand Junction’s National Monument are towers and spires all waiting for adventurous folk to come explore/ quest up their sandy (yet exciting) pitches to enjoy the satisfaction of sitting on top and seeing the world from a very different perspective. Though I have lived here all of my life and have been...

Well, my spring break came and went just like any other year, and I’d have to say it was definitely one of the better ones. After three days of playing extreme catch-up at school because of nationals, I was so psyched for a solid ten days of climbing at one of my favorite places in the world: the Red River Gorge. Given that bouldering season had just ended for me, the red was pretty much the perfect place to go to get myself motivated, as well as somewhat in shape for the next few months of sport...

New season same location. Newlin. It's ridiculous what I'll do for good rock. The last three weekends I've been making the weekly commute to the Wet Wet Mountains from Boulder to climb on that buttery gneiss. It's just that good. Besides the rock the ambience is unbeatable. Smells of rich mahogany and leather-bound books. Newlin still has a few things left to be done in its many nooks and crannies. One such nook yielded the new classic, "The Passion," named in honor of Easter (and Cameron and my sins). Check it out in the latest episode of Max's "The...

Bouldering comp in Austin? That can't be all that cool. WRONG! It is awesome. Austin Rock Gym held their first ever Capital City Crux comp and I say it was a success. ARG did some amazing and much needed remodeling to the gym to prepare for this thing. Before it was an old manky floor and unused wall space. Not anymore. They tore out the big island which opened everything up and gave an entire new feeling to the gym. Even though the walls were the same they felt much better. They also replaced the floor with some big...

The spring is here!!! It's even too hot to play with Tommy in the garden in the midday sun! And some days ago it was still snowing!Since the winter was so long and with not much sun, the clear blue sky, morning sun, and the green grass feels like a miracle to everybody! Tommy is psyched to see the real flowers, saying “fleur” to his daddy and “roža” to me. Everything feels more optimistic and happier in spring!I am looking forward to climb in the rock again. It’s fun to do indoor bouldering and some competitions, but only when...

Three months ago, My girlfriend and I decided to plan a little trip in the North to go in Scandivia’s landscapes and to do some bouldering.After taking fly tickets, we had the certainty about the trip and I started to think many rocks and new places where to climb. The fact to have the possibility to climb in new spots is really motivating and the north Europe isn’t such a frequented area.So a lot of stuff is new for our eyes, the sectors are unknown for us and this discovering is one of the most important things for my...
