Winds of change

So the new administration has firmly taken hold and you've gotten rid of your klunker and purchased a new vehicle in the sake of getting ahead ? So now it's time to get ready to climb some rock, get out to the mountains for a hike, or have a mojito. Better yet, do all three. I make the best mojitos around (from a stolen recipe) !

It's off to the San Juans in WONDERFUL Colorado to do a three day guided trip into Chicago Basin. Then, back to NM for some more fun with rock climbing. Our guests are having a great time out in the New Mexico sun and the southwestern chili is as good as it ever is. 

Justin Spain is working for Beverly Mountain Guides now and is off to take his AMGA Rock Instructor Course in Estes Park next week ! Good Luck, Justin. He's a great guide already and this will only make him better. I can't wait to glean new information from him when he gets back.

I am feeling awesome now that I am a UIAGM/IFMGA Aspirant Mountain Guide. I'll be hoping to host some guests in Europe this coming year under a fully certified guide. Contact us for details since I'll already be there to compete in this years International World Ice Climbing Competition. There are several venues and I'm hoping to be a competitor. Come join the USA crew at one of the venues (Italy, Switzerland, Russia, Slovenia, or Romania). Otherwise, plan for some skiing in the Alps!

Meanwhile, back at home, we've been busy and have put up more sport and traditional climbs in the Sandias this summer. Grades range from 5.6 to 5.12 so there's something new for everyone.

Ted Geving is back in town as well - good to have you back. He will be making some tweaks to the new web site and showing off our new BMG logo !

Stay in shape and get out and climb with us soon. We look forward to hearing from you.

All the Best,

Marc
