Lee shares what he’s been up to, and then the guys list some of their favorite things about the area.  Plus, they explore how different the western mindset is when it comes to long approaches, and what we lose in New Hampshire when we’re unwilling to make a long approach to a crag.  Join us over on the First Ascent Patreon!
