tell us about your climbing background
Noah had a little experience in the gym but was limited to the occasional birthday party or scrambling up rocks as a kid.
why did you join alpine
It wasn’t until a friend mentioned Alpine that Noah considered becoming a climber. “I was looking for something to do for physical activity” and decided climbing was the next hobby he wanted to undertake. There are so many things he loves about Alpine .
What advice would you give to a new climber
Put in the time! Keep climbing. Top Rope something way harder and keep pushing yourself. It’s not all strength and muscle. It’s super technical and a ton of fun.
