With some breaks (for breaks-- I tend to break bones on a regular basis!), I have climbed, on and off, from a few days a year to obsessively-compulsively, for 23 years?

Climbed all over the USA, in particular in Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, S. Dakota, but also in Tennessee, Texas, Wisconsin, Illinois, Kentucky, Alabama, Pennsylvania, Washington, Idaho. . .

In Europe I've climbed in the Gorges de Verdon, Meteora, Arco, and on artificial walls in Austria and Slovenia. . .

I've also climbed in Morocco, Jordan, Vietnam and (mostly Mountaineering) in India and Nepal. Oh, and of course Thailand and extensively in KOREA!
