This body of work is not about climbing; it is a recollection of the moments before and after. Through repeated trips with Reese, Penny dog, and various climbing partners, over the years these crags and their approaches become much more than vast and towering limestone or granite walls. They have evolved into a deeply personal geography shaped by my lived experiences; the highs and lows of life. The act of returning to these familiar places draining the noise in my head to make room for a mantra.
