A blog for local climbers, by local climbers

Everything you need to know to send in the Southeast New England area and beyond

Climbing has always had a tradition of mentorship. Climbers have always taken the lead in passing on knowledge, techniques, and ethics from one generation to the next in the hopes that those who follow are inspired to be better leaders. Wisdom is born from taking our experiences, both good and especially bad, and learning from them. We hope these blog posts act as a jumping point for all climbers, new and experienced alike, to learn from our amazing community so that they may be inspired to be better leaders themselves.
