 A lot of people have a passion for rock climbing. Some people like professionals travel out of the country to rock climb. I don't think that I would want to go out of the country except I do go throughout the state. **Rock climbing is awesome because it's fun if you try, if you fall it's a thrill and you can be with friends and family.**  **It's more enjoyable if you try hard because you can be excited when you get to the top.** It's also fun because you can be excited when you finish a bouldering problem. Bouldering is when you climb on a rock wall without a harness. If you are trying really hard you can spring up to holds. When I try hard I can leap to holds and when I do I usually make it. One time I was trapped on a problem I tried really hard and I challenged myself that I won't leave until I get it which was persevering. Eventually I got it because I tried so hard. I was so proud of myself.

 **Rock climbing is amazing because you get to be with friends and family.** A **lot of** people climb with friends and family but I usually go climbing with my family. My brother is the main climber in the family. He has friends that go there and one of them was my 2nd cousin and Danny's half 2nd cousin. She is awesome and hilarious, like this one time when she dragged me on my butt and created a figure 8 because the floor is covered in rock climbing chalk that keeps you from getting blisters most of the time. We laughed for like 5 minutes and I was sort of angry though because my pants were covered in chalk.  **That is why I believe that rock climbing is so amazing.**
