I really enjoyed this article, Low Hanging Fruit, by Andrew Bisharat about climbing in Venezuela and a climber/farmer/good guy named Jose Miranda. I had the great pleasure of meeting Jose when he lived in the Roaring Fork Valley and climbed alongside him at a new crag called Low Hanging Fruit. He’s a warm, compassionate man and I was inspired by his work as an organic, sustainable farmer. Bisharat’s article is a great read, offering an intriguing insight into a place half a world away with some beautiful and motivating pictures.
Enjoy.
