Nate and Mo welcome their very first guest on the podcast - their climbing pal Steve. Join the three of us as we compare the typical* climbing culture of the UK and Canada. We talk about the relative safety of Canadian sport climbing and contrast that with British climbers' refusal to use bolts and to use traditional gear almost exclusively. We go into detail about the bizarre UK Climbing grading system and end by discussing how a British dirtbag may differ from a Canadian one, and where the first stop is post-climbs. *We can never capture the full culture of both places in a one-hour episode. This is OUR experience in both places, and we suggest it is most typical of an average recreational climber who enjoys getting out on a good weather weekend.
