Took my 9 year old nephew Zak to the bouldering gym.  After only mild coercion about the safety of not being harness or tethered to the wall, he had a freaking blast.  He went up the wall multiple times and even indulged me while I attempted (and rocked out) a level 0.  That’s right, folks.  I’m officially over Beginner and I’ve moved on to Zero.  The sense of accomplishment was only slightly diminished by the embarrassingly small number associated with it.
