AIARE Level 1 Avalanche Course with Pro Guiding

by Sara on December 11, 2012

TweetShareWhere life used to revolve solely around climbing, if you’ve been around awhile you know that I’ve diversified.  Saturday marked the start of my fourth season of trying to learn how to ski — a task I wouldn’t highly recommend taking on in your 30s, but in some ways, I wouldn’t trade it.  Trying to [...]

November 8, 2012

TweetShareMore on my own journey from avid climber to recreational dabbler some other day — but today, I wanted to just share a link to my friend Brendan’s blog post over at Semi-Rad.com.  I already went all long-winded in his comments, so I won’t duplicate that all here… I’ll save it for another day.  Here’s [...]

It’s been months. And all I want to do is climb.

February 3, 2012

TweetShareI’ve had an okay ski season, all things considered, but today, looking out the window at a sunny day and clear skies, all I can think is sunshine, warm rock, and climbing bolt to bolt on 5.7s I’ve climbed a hundred times before as warm-ups because I’m so far out of climbing shape I don’t [...]

TweetShareBut, my amazing friends Fitz and Becca are about 10,000 downloads away from the one million downloads mark, for the Dirtbag Diaries. What does that matter?  Well … in the grand scheme of things, it doesn’t.  Who really cares about one million downloads.  Or 5.16.  Or 5,000 followers.  On the other hand, the fact that [...]

AAC, you had me at Jack Tackle.

June 24, 2011

TweetShareDear American Alpine Club: I should have joined eons ago.  I know.  It’s been on my to do list — literally — for years.

TweetShareWhen I wrote my first post last year about my beginning forays onto the ski slopes, I got a few notes indicating that readers would rather I stick to climbing… that there are enough ski blogs out there already.  Well, I say… tough.  I’ve become a skier; and now that I’m finally learning to ski [...]
