For my fellow outdoors fans - something I'd never even dreamed of that a 13-year-old is attempting!

Check it out! This young man is incredibly driven and skilled. It does help that his parents are endurance sport competators. He's got the right mindset and you can tell having active parents is part of the support system that allows him to do such technical climbs. I'm much more of a bouldering climber and Hubby prefers to top-rope, but neither of us are to the level that the climbers featured in the story are. Props to a whole family of outdoor enthusiasts who have made the commitment to a lifestyle of nature, travel, and climbing!!
