Cool Interview with Beth Rodden & Tommy Caldwell at Backcountry.com
![]()
Professional climbers aren’t quite the same as backpackers or recreational campers, but I’m still jealous about all the time they get to spend outside and all the cool places they get to visit (and get paid to visit too). Beth Rodden and Tommy Caldwell both hold a lot of climbing records, but they seem to be pretty cool people too - plus they’re married and manage to spend weeks together in the close quarters of tents and climbing porta-ledges. …we can all probably take some lessons on that.
Here’s the interview of the climbing couple from the folks at the Backcountry.com gear shop.
