Whitney Boland: Life in the Gunks

Black Diamond Ambassador Whitney Boland has climbed all over the world, and she has had more than 30 addresses in the past 10 years. The community, travel and pursuit of climbing define her life. And her passion for moving over rock has also led her to her current home, a small cabin on the edge of New York’s Shawangunks, where she has rediscovered what it means to #liveclimbrepeat.

The great thing about the Gunks is the vulgarian lifestyle that comes with it, and the climbing too!

GUNKS!!!
As a New Paltz resident and a beginner climber, i am always proud to see the Gunks mentioned by big names, thank you..

Look into doing Shockley's ceiling, it's classic! Dick Williams, former owner of Rock and Snow did the first naked accent. He was a great climber but I'm glad I didn't belay him for that!

I don't think I suck if I fall. I acknowledge myself for going for it. I might throw a fit if I get shut down. But I exhale all the fire and expletives which seems to reel me back in. One should enjoy the practice not expect perfection.
