CLIMBING RESOURCES

This is an ongoing list of some of the most fun, inspiring and informative climbing resources I’ve come across:

#1) The Quick n’ Dirty:

#2) For Inspiration:

Steph Davis: is a sponsored climber, and a writer who loves to share her passion for climbing & adventure. She is also a vegan, a BASE-jumper, and a dog-lover. She runs a great website where she shares her experiences, recipes, climbing seminars/clinics, gear reviews. In her section, “Hi, Steph,” she answers readers’ questions about climbing.

She has also published several brilliant books, “Learning to Fly” and “High Infatuation,” one that sings in harmony with my soul.
