Meet @trevor_hahns_art_through_touch! Adaptive cli Meet @trevor_hahns_art_through_touch! Adaptive climber, artist, father, husband, and a kick-butt harmonica player (amongst other things). "My eyes started deteriorating really fast in 2014 and so all of that kind of disappeared- art, climbing, sports, everything disappeared because of it. So I started spiraling into a deep depression at that point. I didn’t know where to turn for happiness or anything. I basically started figuring out stuff, it was almost the end for me but then I decided one day that this wasn’t going to be it so I started doing a little climbing here and there with different groups and on my first climb after losing total site, except for light- now I can only see light, I climbed for the first time and I was going up I started feeling different things on the rock and I had this vision that basically rocks are sculptures. So I started feeling all of the edges and realized that climbing is art, I started thinking of sculptures and I got to the top and gained a lot of confidence as far as climbing. I realized I can still do these things just by feel and touch." Learn more about Trevor with the link in our bio. Photo ID: Trevor standing in front of a large, snowy mountain landscape in Nepal. He is smiling at the camera and wearing a puffy jacket, beanie, and sunglasses. #AdaptiveClimbing #FrontRangeClimb #EveryoneWelcome #GotStump #GetOutdoors #NeverStopExploring #ClimbingIsForEveryBody #AdaptiveAthlete

We are excited to introduce you to our newest Para We are excited to introduce you to our newest Paradox Ambassador, Carlos Quiles! Located in Connecticut, Carlos is a healthcare administrator, volunteer track coach, and the first official member of the Paradox Sports Climbing Team -- a group of elite athletes that compete on the world stage and increase representation. We sat down with Carlos earlier this month for a question and answer session -- check it out with the link in our bio! Speaking about why he's excited to be a member of the Paradox Sports Climbing team, Carlos says, "I’m excited to be part of the initiative with Paradox and the team as well. I’m excited to see what comes out of it and to see what I envision as something that becomes a cross-country group of climbers from all over the US coming together to support and take adaptive climbing to the next level. Anything that creates more opportunities is a win-win." We are stoked to be starting a competitive climbing team, but it is a big undertaking and needs funding support. Our goal is to support our athletes with year-round coaching, community support, and travel scholarships. Our Base Camp Fundraiser, presented by @EldoradoClimbingWalls, will help us guarantee that Carlos reaches his climbing goals and that additional adaptive athletes do as well. Base Camp is our largest single-day annual fundraiser, helping us raise critical funding for our national trips, Adaptive Climbing Initiatives, local programs, and our competitive climbing team. We need your help to expand our mission impact of transforming lives and communities with adaptive climbing opportunities that defy convention.
