I am a writer, too, kinda. I am also writing a novel. I’m working on a novel. I also write. I’ve been working on this novel. These were the phrases always trotted out when I had a desk job and never had the mental state or time to write. For years, I had countless… https://climbingzine.com/why-climbers-should-write-and-writers-should-climb-by-cyrena-lee/

When we fail on large moves, most of us tend to think we just need to pull more and pull harder—and our training reflects this bias toward the upper body. https://www.climbing.com/skills/hips-climbing-training/

In this episode, we sit down with Jarod, a long-time AAC member, to discuss a crazy accident he had at his home crag in Missouri, and how he utilized the AAC’s rescue benefit to cover the cost of his medical expenses. If you’ve been wondering if the AAC’s rescue benefit is for you, Jarod’s story helps explain how it works. We dive into the quirky concept of “girdle traverses” or mulitpitches that go sideways, and analyze his accident— the decisions he made, how traversing complicates gear placements, and the close calls he had. Funnily enough, Jarod also did a FA on that same wall—putting up Missouri’s potentially longest rock climb with Jeremy Collins, and this FA made it into the American Alpine Journal! We discuss the vision behind this 8-pitch traverse, what went into making it happen, the silliness of climbing, the unique belay tactics for traversing, and more! https://americanalpineclub.org/news/2024/6/26/protect-first-ascents-ground-falls-and-the-aac-rescue-benefit-in-action
