In the Fall of 2018 -shortly after learning how to drive and getting our first car- my partner and I converted the minivan that we got, and took a 10 day road trip from New York City to Horse Pens 40 in Steele, Alabama for the event, Color the Crag.

The purpose of Color the Crag is “… to celebrate diversity in the sport of rock climbing. Our mission is to increase access and exposure to historically marginalized communities by building relationships, encouraging leadership, and providing positive representation of climbing and physical activity among populations of color.”
