Climbing and Shoulder Injuries

Climbing and Shoulder Injuries

Hi Steph, given your level of experience and ability I presume you’ve had some injuries in your climbing career.

Moving to Moab

Hi Steph, I am writing you because I am having a hard time finding any other information on moving to and renting in Moab.

Tiny Kitchens

Tiny Kitchens

Hi Steph, I’m taking a job that will have me moving every year, so I’m thinking of building myself a tiny house (http://www.tumbleweedhouses.com/ for inspiration) on a trailer to move around with me. I’m young (21) and a civil engineer by training so I’m drawing up the plans and building the house myself, but I’ve [...]

La Caida

Buenos dias No se si habla españool, pero bueno yo le pregunto. Llevo 20 años escalando y a dia de hoy mi máximo reto es conseguir escalar fluido y sin pensar en la caída. Mi visión es focalizada hacia la caída en todo momento, llegando incluso a impedir que siga escalando. He probado de todo [...]
