Me atop Training rock circa 2003

Many years ago when I was just a pug pup and had recently discovered bouldering, I visited this training rock once, twice and even three times a day to practice. After a few months I had become so sure footed that I could turn a full 360 degrees while atop this boulder without my foot touching the ground. I owe much of my success as a climber to those many trips to my old training rock.
