Blundering around, still getting the hang of things. Too many balls in the air. Tickling the edges of mediocrity, not as handy as imagined younger self.Location

Best Climbing Experience
Soloing 87 routes on the grit either side of a bivvy night out. Just like Big Ron, only about a million grades easier. Being with nice people in nice places. Being alone in nice places.
