Climbing
Every February, I climb for charity. This year I will donate $1 for every route or boulder sent to MICA Project. You can donate to my fundraiser here or directly on their website.

Indoor Climbing Stats
A lot of the V3s since summer 2026 have been on the minimoonboard I built in my garage and they feel hella hard.
I have been tracking most of my indoor climbing sessions with a Garmin to get the approximate feet and grade. Sometimes the altimeter is off. The code to generate these charts can be found here: Garmin Climbing Charts
