Synopsis

Talus magazine is a quarterly publication connecting people to the motions and emotions we all experience as climbers. We’re about getting you ready to find your stoke for the sharp end through training tips and tactics from stepping foot into local gyms to moving up striking rock formations around the world. Each one of us carries a story, and each one of us has the ability to empower one another through our experiences.
