Just a few thoughts
It’s always comp season! While the World Climbing Series just wrapped up in Santiago, local comps in North America are just getting underway. USAC began a few weeks ago, CEC just posted their schedule that starts in January, and ASCL is launching it’s largest season yet this weekend with events in at least 16 states. Good luck to all competitors, coaches, routesetters and organizers in the season ahead!
