Episode #1 of Marmot's Lead Now Tour is here![youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrTJ-h0W_Cg&w=560&h=315]In South Africa, I was fortunate to make the first ascent of Digital Warfare (5.14a/33/8b+), one of the most beautiful lines I’ve ever seen. I also made the first female ascent of Rodan (5.14a/33/8b+) in Waterval Boven. Jon and I visited Wesley Memorial Primary School, a rural elementary school whose library is supported by Room to Read, our non-profit partner in South Africa. During our six weeks in South Africa we met an incredible group of local climbers, saw gorgeous sunsets and star-scapes, and even got a peek at some Lion King style wildlife. See all this and more in Episode #1: South Africa.By releasing this video, and other content about our time in South Africa, we hope to raise $10,000 for Room to Read. You can donate to our fundraiser online HERE, and if you donate $27 or more, you’ll be entered into a random monthly raffle for a Marmot tent!
