Told through a series of interviews, images and anecdotes. Boulderite is a personal story documenting my return to the sport of climbing and the people and places that influenced me along the way.

Boulderite.

As a Boulderite, climbing has been a part of my life and the Boulder Community for as long I can remember. In my youth, I was a part of team ABC and competed in indoor climbing for over five years. By age sixteen, my motivation to compete had begun to dwindle and as a result I made the difficult decision to hang up the climbing shoes to focus on snowboarding. Five years later, I made my return to the sport with help of some newfound friends and began documenting the places and people who reinspired my passion to climb. The Boulderite project is personal reflection of images, interviews and anecdotes that tell my story through the perspective of my hometown.
