We all face challenges in our life. Climbing can be a valuable tool for helping us learn to face challenges, and develop mechanisms to work through the adversity we are faced with. Above the knee amputee Ronnie Dickson will talk about his process of assessing and overcoming challenges and how these lessons have empowered him both on and off the wall.
