A day at the crag

Is a gift to the soul.

A connecting experience

Of rock and body,

Mind and spirit.

A day under the sun

Fills me with a joy that is peaceful

And a mind that is sharp.

The challenge is contagious.

Pain comes with gain,

And fear fades with confidence.

Trust builds on error,

Because mistakes can be caught.

Climbing high on real rock,

We’re not as alone as we thought.
