Climate Law and Climbing.
Outdoor rec is booming outside of any red/blue state dichotomy; concerns about “where will my job go if coal leaves” might be partly alleviated by ensuring outdoor rec investment into coal towns and other extractive-economy-based energy communities

Not-so-humble brag, but seeing the Olympics (both climbing and the USWNT!) was one of the coolest experiences of my life.

If you get the chance to make it to LA… do it!!

Any climbers on here?? Enjoyed the process of figuring out this paddle dyno a bit ago.

Shoutout to Method Climbing in Newark, NJ!

Alaska!! It was an almost religious experience to see the sheer scale of everything. One of the most somber examples of climate harm (photo 1) I’ve ever seen combined with unreal landscapes (2 + 3, but kinda also 1). Itching to go back.

Not climate or climbing… BUT I celebrated a goal of mine today!

I visited all 50 states!! We live in one of the most diverse countries in the world and I feel fortunate that I’ve seen so much of it before turning 27 🤘🏼
