Friends, given our current state of affairs, now more than ever is a good time to post throwbacks of our happy memories and know that our current crisis is only temporary. However, now we must all #quarantineandchill and practice #socialdistancing at all times to do our part for the world. # Throwback to last summer when we climbed perhaps one of the best 5.8 route In North America (IMHO). If you like lie backing, “Dierdre” at Squamish is an Uber classic. #squamishclimbing #squamishisawesome #rockclimbing #aacgram #climbon #climbingislife #tradisrad #peak #photooftoday #instadaily #tbw #climb #climber #climbing #climbingrocks (at Squamish, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B94TwaGggO0/?igshid=x9n1jqqwrb1t

Repost @rock_climbing_jewelry with @get_repost ・・・ Happy women's day! 🌷 Reposted from @heather_lightfoot - This image was created for Squamish Exposed by @sav.cummins . It was inspired by the WW2 icon, Rosie the Riveter who asked women to rise up, and prove to men that we can do whatever men can do. Rosie was described as masculine, she wore men’s clothes and did a mans job, however she wore lipstick to represent her feminine side. #womenpower #womenwhoclimb #womenclimbing #girlswhoclimb #girlspower #womenlead #womenwholead #climb #climbing #rockclimb #rockclimbing #climbers #climbingnation #climbersofinstagram #climbingpics #climbingphotography #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #climbingrocks #bouldering #tradclimbing #ropeclimb #sportclimbing #iloveclimbing #liveclimbrepeat #climbon #climberlife #climbing_is_my_passion #klettern #arrampicata #escalada https://www.instagram.com/p/BuwFLLqALMG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1denp530ky6g1

As a team of three, all wanting to lead pitches, it wasn't a simple matter of swinging leads last weekend. 🪢 Each pitch was a rotation of gear and a potentially some rope adjustment too. I actually managed to go off route turning a simplel traverse on Outside Edge Route (VD) into something a lot harder. I knew i'd gone wrong but was mislead by an in situ nut that I found, convincing myself I was on the right route. In hindsight, that was a probably a bit of gear someone had bailed on. 🧗🏻‍♂️ The other key issue this little diversion introduced was our friend 'rope drag'. I've never had such a fight pulling ropes through. I was absolutely knackered. . . . #climbing #climbingistheloveofmylife #climbon #climberlife #climbersofinstagram #climbinglife #climbingtrip #climbingmountains #climbingisforeverybody #climbingismypassion #climbing_is_my_passion #climbersofinstagram #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #tradclimbing #tradclimb #ukclimbing #welshclimbing #climbingworldwide #climbingrocks #climbingislife #rockclimbing #climbingphoto #climbingphotography #climbingpicturesofinstagram #climbingpics #climbingphotographer #rockclimbingphotography #rockclimbingpicturesofinstagram #rockclimbingfun #rockclimbingtrip (at Craig Cwm Silyn) https://www.instagram.com/p/CeMA2NdD2Ks/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Friends, on a recent heli ski trip to Annapurna I got sick in Kathmandu and took some Cipro for what I thought was a routine case of “Delhi Belly“. Unbeknownst to me Cipro carries a “Boxed Warning”. This is the most serious warning from the FDA, and it means that the FDA considers the drug to be potentially dangerous in some capacity. The boxed warning for Cipro specifically states that this fluoroquinolone antibiotic may increase the risk of tendinitis and tendon rupture in people of all ages, which can lead to serious side effects, such as nerve pain, chronic pain from induced myalgia, burning, numbness, or weakness in the joints and muscles, and swelling and pain in the joints and tendons. “These symptoms may come on after just one or two doses and may last for years. It is unknown yet whether some of the symptoms and changes, especially nerve changes, are permanent” – Geez. # Although I did not experience any tendon rupture, I experienced most of the other symptoms and for over five weeks when I first got home I could barely walk. I was starting to think that this might be permanent, however in the last two weeks I have been feeling much better and am starting to train again for some upcoming adventures. Still after two and a half months, I have not fully recovered. The strange thing is that I have taken Cipro before on previous expeditions and did not experience any side effects. # So, to my fellow adventurers I offer you a word of caution as to what you decide to take for some of the infections that you encounter during your travels and advise you to consult with your doctor in advance. I have learned through my research that these adverse symptoms occur often enough for the FDA to release a warning that doctors should only use fluoroquinolones, such as Cipro, when no other treatment options are available. Unfortunately , now I understand why. Just a quick share so you don’t have to experience what I went through.

Drill? Check. Charged battery? Check. Bolts and hangers? Check. Pants rolled up to wade across a river with a machete slung across your rope bag? Check, check, check.

The first time I was a part of developing new routes was in Boquete, Panamá. The town had been my home crag for a while, with my adoration for the stellar community and neat basalt formations already strong. I thought my relationship with the rock was already established - pulling up to the crag juggling cups of coffee on the back of Mauricio’s motorcycle and blindfolded leads on Camino de Los Locos had my heart singing the praises of the crag that was 15 minutes from my kitchen table.

When the mention of adding a second pitch to a line at Icaro came up, I knew I wanted to be a part of the process. It would be my first experience developing a route, so I was psyched about all that I would learn. As we trudged our way across the Río Caldera, up through the coffee plants, and to the wall, little gaps in my understanding of the sport were constantly being closed. The amount of machete work that went into cleaning the route before brushes could even be thought about was astounding. My experience in Potrero Chico had given me a solid introduction to what it was like to have aggressive vegetation on the wall, but being in the middle of a Panamanian jungle was a completely new level. We were working for ourselves and were excited to be able to share the route with friends and visitors going forward. 

As the drill was brought out, there was great care and discussion about the best location for bolts and how different styles of climbing would all be able to succeed.I had never given thought to so many of the questions that were being asked in front of me. Of course bolts are best when they’re in places where you can safely clip them. I had certainly been frustrated with poor bolt placement before, but only now was I realizing that when everything goes smoothly - as it does almost always in sport climbing - it is because a team of hardworking individuals did the hard work beforehand. Even when the rain started beating down on us in proper Panamanian fashion, we stayed out there and got the pitch finished. It was nothing groundbreaking. No professional climbers are going to come and seek out this route. It was a huge change for my brain though, and that’s something that will stick with me for a long time. Well, maybe it also had something to do with the great tunes that were coming from the speaker hanging off of a friend’s harness and the on-wall dance parties that happened throughout the day.

It feels like my appreciation to the intricacies of sport climbing has been forever changed. Since that day out at Ícaro, I’ve been out to a few other crags to work on bolting new routes. There is loads of learning to go before I’d be comfortable being the decision maker on a new line, but the enthusiasm is certainly there. The route we put up that first day has been a blast. Compression moves are in no way my style, so the refrigerator size block that starts mid-route has me especially thankful for well placed bolts. Before being a part of this process, I was ignorant to the amount of work and attention went into the routes I enjoyed so much. That first day out bolting made me appreciate my home crag in new, more well rounded ways.
