Heard that Konstantin and Shay sent the Palisade traverse (Thunderbolt to Sill) last weekend… nice work dudes! Where’s the photos?
It is fall now, some people will run to the hills to watch the aspens change colors others will begin the ritual of watching football every weekend with religious dedication.

The one of the hardest part about being a climber is trying to convey the experience of climbing to others. It is as if you know the answer, but you can’t articulate it. You have a great story, but can’t tell it. I have had similar experiences trying to tell a story to someone who doesn’t speak the same languages as me. What makes it frustrating is that there are words that describe the experience, but the meaning of those words is far removed from their conventional definitions. How do you define “mysteriously technical”, “mind blowing” even if you could recount the movements of a climb; even if you could describe the sounds of a day, it is still impossible to impart upon others the experience that you had. It is yours and yours alone. You want to share it, but you can’t. This is the curse of climbing.
