Question: Do you know what it means when one of your turn signals blinks faster than the other? Answer: You have a turn signal out. Don’t let it ruin an adventure though! It’s a quick, easy, and cheap fix if you’re comfortable doing it yourself. Identify which one is out by leaving your blinker on and completing a walk-around inspection, or have a friend watch for you. Each vehicle is a little different so watch a YouTube video if you don’t already know how to remove it. After remova...

Normally, I prefer riding bike parks or downhill trails, but today I drove up to Prescott to escape the Phoenix heat and did some normal trail riding. What kind of riding do y’all prefer ?

Be cautious of external factors when climbing. It was getting dark on me, but I still had time to equalize my anchor and double check myself and my gear 🤘🏻

UPDATE I’ve been learning the ways of editing 360 content. Unfortunately, it’s not going to be as interactive as I was hoping due to platform compatibility issues. However, it will still boost your content viewing experience! 🤘🏻 Especially with my climbing content 🧗 🙋♂️ For those of you with 360 editing experience, what software should I use to covert the 360 files into mp4 format for local downloads and editing within premiere? I’m working with a GoPro Max and run...

Spent some time in Jerome, Arizona over the weekend. I learned so much unique history that I’m compelled to share it with you 🤓 The Audrey Headframe is the largest wooden headframe still standing in Arizona. It was used to raise ore out of the 1900 foot mine shaft below 🤯

Preparing ropes for the live stream tonight 🤠 Use a hot knife to prevent frays while cutting rope. It will will make tying complex knots easier, and keeps everything neat and clean for photography purposes 🪢😃

Two non-locking caribiners joined by a sling create an alpine draw. Alpine draws are common for trad climbing as they allow you to extend the sling from your gear placement, preventing walking 😎

This lil feller right here is a nut tool. Beings that passive gear relies on being wedged into a crack, it can often be difficult to remove. I recommend having two nut tools in your trad bag. One for you and your follower. 🤘

Passive gear, such as this set of nuts, does not consist of moving components and relies on its rigidity to catch a fall after being wedged into a crack. So the yellow cam on the left is active protection, the set of nuts on the right are passive examples of protection.

Active gear, such as this cam, has moveable components to adapt to the shape of the rock. I remember the difference by thinking active people stay in motion.
