It's finally fall in Colorado, and with cooler temperatures comes sendage! As a Colorado native and a resident of Fort Collins, I am lucky enough to climb year round. Now is the prime season in Poudre Canyon. On my first trip of the season I realized there is still so much I haven't even seen yet. So right now I am working on the first female ascent of Public Property V9, previously V11 until the start hold broke and became even bigger. Psyched for the send!

Nearly 30 hours later, after driving across no man's land, we arrived at our home base in Chattanooga. Once we had winded down from the drive we quickly spurted another 5 hours Northeast to the first leg of the Triple Crown Bouldering Series in Boone, North Carolina.

Just left the Red River Gorge. Midway through two months leave of absence from work. The past month went by so heart-breakingly fast. After being chained to my desk 50+ hours a week for the past year, I am PSYCHED to be outside and rock climbing. If desk jobs aren’t great for training, they’re at least good for motivation on trips. Several times when there were ten people in line for my warmup, or the weather straight sucked, or my skin was shredded to the point of excruciating pain, I gleefully reminded myself “It’s TUESDAY—and I’m outside!” ...
