An avid climber for more than twenty years, Jason’s tick list includes El Capitan and Half Dome, among other routes in Yosemite. He has lived in many states, taking advantage of all the unique terrain across the country. When he’s not traveling around the world to climb and experience other cultures, Jason enjoys good food, music, and mountain biking. He has a serious height advantage at 6’6″ but only climbs recreationally, so don’t worry about him taking you down at comps.
