This past weekend at the Outdoor Retailer in Salt Lake City, we were on a hunt to find out why climbers climb. On this mission, we had the opportunity to meet some of the most inspiring climbers around to hear why they do what they do.
Here’s what they had to say:
I have no choice!
– Cedar Wright
It is better than soccer.
– Paul Robinson
It’s my LIFE!
– Ashima Shiraishi
It allows me to escape reality!
– Daniel Woods
Who doesn’t want to be as high as they can be?
– Nina Williams
It is better than curling! It is still legal. It rocks. Full body work out. You get better when older.
– Hans Florine
I believe in a healthy, active lifestyle!
– Sasha DiGiulian
I’m too small for football!
– Dan Beall
Food is good.
– Michael O’Rourke
The boys are ripped!
– Alex Johnson
And so am I!
– Meagan Martin
