Two months after breaking his foot on 埃尔卡皮坦, a formidable 3,000-foot rock face at Yosemite National Park, Peter Stetson (CAS’08) ventured back out with climbing partner Matthew Smith (CFA’08). 斯泰森是波士顿大学健身和娱乐中心（FitRec）的攀岩教练，史密斯是FitRec的攀岩协调员，他们在新罕布什尔州北康威的怀特霍斯岩壁上进行了儿童十字军运动
“我认为攀岩是一种冥想活动，”史密斯说。 “You have to focus intently on what you’re doing, so you can eliminate all of your other thoughts." Stetson adds, "When you’re standing on top of what you thought there was no way you could do, when the risks were high, it’s one of the most satisfying things in the world."
Although like most climbers Stetson and Smith prefer to climb outdoors, they say that climbing at FitRec’s 巴雷卡攀岩墙 is a convenient and weatherproof alternative. 可以说，这也是初学者学习绳索的好方法。
“我喜欢教书，”斯泰森说，他在FitRec负责攀岩耐力训练和攀岩入门课程的指导。 “它让我分享攀岩时的兴奋，分享那种感觉，哇，我刚刚做了一件我认为自己做不到的事情。”
Some climbing classes began last week, but Smith says that students can 联系他 directly to inquire about available spots. 本周有两个新课程开始：11月4日的攀岩复习和11月5日的攀岩耐力训练。 To register for classes, visit the FitRec 网站.
