The climbing industry of North America gathered yesterday. New products and services adorn every booth of the CWA Summit, and both prospective fresh owners and seasoned operators checked out the wares. Today the educational sessions begin, a chance to share our collective wisdom. And tomorrow the IFSC World Cup begins, and the Grip Showcasewraps up. Yep, it’s a big week in SLC. Hope to see you there!
