The Visual #17

My lack of bouldering skills will be on display

in the next issue of Escalade Magazine, the premiere French climbing magazine, in an article about Penitente Canyon, Colorado.

I am most excited to be stacked on the back of French toilets across another country and then envied by some guy named Pierre twice a day as he squeezes out the byproduct of the area's finest wines and cheeses!

Tanks Example D

Bobbi Bensmen. A move through Snake Charmer. This was Bobbi's first trip to Hueco since the 1980's when she was setting the standards for women's bouldering at the time...with out crashpads. 20 years later she is no less fearless.

Tanks Example C

Naomi Guy. A move through the classic testpeice: Orafice Affair.

Tanks Example B

Trixie Tartasky. A move through Tall Cool Red One.

Tanks Example A
