@ltjian's line in Rifle has some teeth! Only one day here and we already climbed the two bolted cracks. 📷 @jasongebauerphotography #fortheloveofclimbing His beta was all wrong for me. His gear placements were constantly in awkward positions to retrieve—with our difference in height, I would never be able to place pro where he could. Maybe I needed to stew a little bit in my frustration, but I knew that in the end, it would only get me so far. David Draper was there for the redpoint of Mrs. Socrates, my first Twall 12. When I was lowered to the ground, he exclaimed, “Bio-mechanically, you have EVERY advantage over most climbers. You’re ninety pounds and got less pounds per square inch. You are not too short! It means is you’ve got to get your ass up and climb harder.” — Read "Shorty beta" on the blog, link in bio. #fortheloveofclimbing After we got back from Clear Creek, I fell asleep in my car by accident, woke up and then stumbled into Whole Foods. In a groggy daze, I think I accidentally bought $16 worth of mashed potatoes. #fortheloveofclimbing This pizza and beer post is brought to you by the letter "K".

I still have no idea how to use Twitter
