In our gyms, everything is inspected regularly—bolts, anchors, quickdraws, you name it. But out at the crags, where there isn’t a Rockstar facilities team to back you up, it’s up to the climbing community to keep each other safe. At outdoor climbing areas, on public land, there is no routine maintenance or inspection by land management agencies, and all work is done by local volunteers. This means as climbers we are responsible for the bolts and anchors we choose to use! Thankfully, with the help of the American Safe Climbing Association (ASCA), caring for the crags you love has never been easier.

Menstrual cycle tracking is something that’s missing from a lot of women’s training regimens. For most of us, it’s an event that we know happens monthly, but we don’t know what happens week-to-week. Understanding what our hormones are doing is the first step in transforming what we might think of as a barrier, into a superpower.
