Just a few thoughts
The holiday season is a time to shift our focus close to home – friends, family, community. And the things that really matter, like relationships, health, growth, and gratitude. For many of us, climbing provides these, bringing together the people and places and feelings that we live for. We give thanks for climbing and how it nourishes us.
At CBJ we also give thanks for our awesome team, who works diligently to provide you with the news, tips and tools that you value. Thank you Joe Robinson, John Burgman, Jamie Strong, Naomi Stevens, Louie Anderson, McKenzie Long, Jonathan Littauer, Holly Yu Tung Chen, Devin Dabney, Zoe Leibovitch and Scott Rennak.
