On episode 1 of The Dirtbag Discovery, I sit down with local Central Alberta crusher Kurtis Paul. Kurtis is the owner of Trailhead Climbing and Fitness Red Deer’s only climbing gym and has been getting after it for +10 years. Known for his grindy sport climbing projects, Kurtis has recently engulfed himself in the world of mastery. In this interview Kurtis offers us some insight into his own personal climbing journey, shares some of his lessons and tips for new climbers, and shares some insider information for the Red Deer climbing community.
