Sending our love and condolences to the friends and family of Liz Weber

Liz's tireless work creating, maintaining and later gifting Muir Valley to the climbing community has had a profound impact on new climbers getting into the sport. We at Bluegrass Climbing School are forever in gratitude to Liz and Rick's contributions to the area we love so much.

Thank you Liz!
