Climbing on Limestone
Lately I’ve been spending time at Mount Charleston just outside of Vegas to take advantage of the cool temperatures. It’s been well over 100° in Vegas and been in the mid 70s at Charleston and sometimes quite chilly in the shade. What like about Climbing limestone around there that every Craig seems to have a different climbing style. Some of the climbs are smooth with small rails then there are others areas with a phenomenon called "churt" which consist of a different consistency of stone embedded in the limestone that makes great little cramp holds. Churt has been providing a lot of cool Climbing opportunities with different styles of beta. Have been excited about Climbing like I was when I first started out years ago. Although I started out trad Climbing and then picked up sport climbing years later my first sport climbs were on limestone, but it completely different style. Recently, I’ve have met pretty cool dudes from the Vegas area and having good partners can make or break. I’m excited to what’s to come for the next year with my personal training and Sharp End Athletes. Let me know if there is anything on your horizon?
