Yes, these labels are reductive AF and oversimplify an infinitely complex activity in which most of us embrace more than one discipline. We climbers love our labels: gumby, punter, everyman/woman, trad climber, sport climber, aid climber, ice climber, alpinist, mountaineer, boulderer, new-router/first ascentionist, gym climber, free soloist, highballer, gymbie, comp climber, weekend warrior, spraylord, power climber, enduro-pig, kneebar specialist, crack climber, offwidth climber, climbing-team kid, crusher, semi-pro climber, pro climber, etc. ![]()
