Posted By Steve Mc Clure the 2011-06-07 Or the God Of all Traverses? Im not the fittest of climbers, but its not often that I turn up at a cliff and only manage one route before crawling off exhausted! But the mega traverse at Craig-y-Longridge is way longer than the average route! Craig-y-Longridge is one of those places that as a climber you just have to visit. Maybe not the most amazing cliff, but its got history and a share of fame. It was almost lost recently before the good old BMC bought it

The Arc'teryx Bozeman Ice Fest is different every year, but the span of emotions from this year's festival seemed particularly representative of the sport and culture of ice climbing: in the joy of beginner climbers hefting tools for the first time and the glow of older climbers returning to Hyalite after being away; in a somber tribute to friend and mentor Guy Lacelle, who had a fatal accident in the canyon one year ago. The Bozeman Ice Fest represented a microcosm of the sport as a whole, both in its ...

My damned assistant stole my client base, decimating my animal care service within the span of a few short emails. Premier Pet Care, which saved my butt when I walked away from the corporate world and into the realm of starving artist back in 2001. Little did I know, at the start, that when I started climbing(in 2004), having a dog walking service would be the perfect type of business for someone who needed time away from being physically present on the job. But it sure was! When I began climbing, I was

A few weeks back I posted a story about a new Mountain Hardwear sponsored athlete by the name of Matt Moniz, who at the age of 12 has already summitted some big peaks, including Aconcagua, Kilimanjaro, and Elbrus. At the time of that story, he had also recently climbed Denali, Mt. Whitney, and Mt. Elbert, all in a span of just 8 days.It turns out, that was just part of his plan to climb the 50 highest points, in all 50 states, in just 50 days. Matt, and his father Mike, have been knocking off those high

Now here is a very cool expedition for you. Adventurer Charlie Wittmack is setting out on what he calls his " World Tri " today, which will incorporate all the elements of a standard triathlon, and in the same order, but on a much larger scale. Charlie will begin in London, where he'll swim down the River Thames, then across the English Channel to France. Once safely on the other side of the Channel, he'll get on his bike and ride to Calcutta, India, where he'll then proceed on foot to Nepal, up the Khumbu

Daniel Woods has written a piece about where he thinks climbing is going . I think this is a very complicated issue... and I suspect I'm not unique in this sense (either). On the one hand, if we by progress mean more difficult climbing, a significantly harder problem or route must get a higher grade, because it's on open ended scale. On the other hand, it's not always easy to know whether the thing you've climbed (this is even more true for bouldering) is just very hard (or easy) for you, for any number of

Disruption of finger flexor pulleys in rock climbers: prevalence, diagnosis and strategies for rehabilitation. NB: This article was formerly in the articles section of my old website. It was really popular so I’ve reposted it here. Background The sport of rock climbing has developed into a mainstream, competitive sport with considerable popularity. This growth is likely to be partly attributable to the virtual elimination of the significant danger aspect in rock climbing, within the disciplines of sport
