Pitumarca is a cash-and-trade type of town. There isn't a bank or a gas station in sight. Small streets spread from the center square of town, where festive dances and farmers' markets come to life each day. Pitumarca sits at 11,700 feet and is the last outpost for tourists on their way to the recently trendy geologic wonder of Rainbow Mountain. Coco had sent us pictures that promised a mountain range with endless potential, and we were eager to set our eyes and hands on it. Our friends, the main local developers-Jorge Sirvas (aka Coco) and his girlfriend, Diana Gomez, picked us up, and we drove two and a half hours south on Route 3S to the town of Pitumarca, where a valley of untapped limestone potential awaited.

'Taxi, taxi, taxi,' everyone shouted, as drivers beeped, the smells of food wafted by, and we exchanged smiles with the locals. We stepped out of the airport, six bags in tow, into chaos. Backpackers from the Inca Trail trudge by on tired legs. The city is known for Inca ruins, heritage sites and the restaurants surrounding the 'Plaza de Armas,' or city center, and as the point of entry for visiting Machu Picchu. Tourism has been its economic backbone since the 2000s, bringing in over 1.2 million visitors a year. For over 300 years, beginning in the 13 th century, Cusco was the capital of the Inca Empire. In May, 2018,we landed in Cusco, in the Andes Mountains, a 4,300-mile-long range running the length of South America from north to south. Thanks to Instagram, the geologic wonder that just a few years ago was nearly unknown, now sees 3,000 to 4,000 tourists a day. Rainbow Mountain, or Vinicunca, is only a couple of hours away, and at an impressive 17,100 feet. The best part was that Charlotte was all about it, too. But in 2017 my attention turned away from plastic-I wanted to go where people hadn't yet climbed. Bouldering Team for four years, traveling the world. I've climbed and established up to V13, sport climbed and bolted up to 5.14b, and competed on the U.S. My accomplishments aren't all that much, but I am proud of them. The climbing world taught me a lot, and I trained to be the best I could. Five years later, I found that work too repetitive, and quit to work in the climbing industry. And she said yes.Īs for me, I joined a climbing team at age 15 and loved it until I was 18, then decided it was time to get a real job, as an electrician.

Add all that up, plus her intelligence, and she's out of my league. She has sent 5.14d and won World Cups and even a few World Championship titles.

Charlotte started climbing at the age of six with her father and brother in the French Alps and Verdon Gorge. I had met Charlotte in 2013 at Metrorock Climbing Gym, in Littleton, Massachusetts, where I then worked, and after a first awkward moment-due to my nerves-we connected and have been together since.
