We are the new humans! We have lost our instinctual fear of heights and no longer avoid the edge, in fact, we seek it out.  It is in the void of empty space that we desire to be. We retreat from the trappings of society and venture into great and open spaces in search of something more.  The tools we use in the pursuit of our passions may vary, but we are all part of a vertical family.  I hope that this place may serve as a community board of sorts for the sharing of adventures, ideas, passions, and opportunities for all who find peace in the airy heights above.

     The vertical world is where my heart is and my mind can only struggle to please the heart.
