We are very proud of our graduates. We want to support them and acknowledge their accomplishments on and off the wall! Here's what some of our BCT Alumni are up to now.
Kieran Hadley
I’ve been climbing for nine years. I am 17, and my passion for climbing first started at the local YMCA in Boise, and after a year of climbing after school every day I was invited to join the Y’s competitive climbing team. In 2013 I joined the Boise Climbing Team because I needed more advanced training and coaching. Now I am almost finished with my freshman year of college in Salt Lake City; I graduated early so that I could move to Utah and devote my time to outdoor climbing. Along with climbing, I love surfing, photography, and being active in general. MORE

Fallon Rowe
I am currently 21 years old, and just finishing up my Geology degree at Utah State University! I have been climbing for 15 years. I started off on the YMCA team in 2003, but I outgrew their facilities, so I eventually switched to Urban Ascent when I was in middle school. Although I started off as a competition climber and sport climber, I mostly do trad climbing now, and I am also getting hooked on big-walling and roof cracks! I absolutely love the movement, focus, strength, problem-solving, adventure, and friendships that I get from climbing. MORE

Olivia Little
I am currently 18 years old, and this fall, I will be begin my undergrad studies at the University of Virginia. My older brother got me hooked on climbing back when I was in 8th grade. I decided to give it a try too! I have now climbed for five years, having climbed on the BCT ever since I began. MORE
Nate Lanza
I started climbing when I was 5 and joined the BCT when I was 16. I’ve always enjoyed climbing for the places it brought me and the people I did it with, and the latter motivated my original decision to join the BCT. However, I quickly realized that pushing myself to send harder climbs brought me far more enjoyment than any other aspect of climbing, and that’s the part that still has me hooked, 4+ years later. I don’t believe in any inherent purpose to life- I think we as humans get to create our own purpose, by doing the things we love. In that sense, climbing has given my life purpose- along with skiing, hiking, photography, and all the other things I’m passionate about. MORE

Carson Beagles
I began climbing while camping at the City of Rocks national reserve when I was young but didn’t get serious until I joined the BCT when I was 15. It was at Urban Ascent where I fell in love with sport climbing and pushing myself through harder sequences. I took up outdoor projecting as soon as possible and became psyched on swan falls boulders and Leslie Gulch sport climbs. Climbing has been a good way for me to express a passion. It has taught me how to get through the difficult junctions in life and perseverance in failure. MORE
