My name is Alyse Dietel, I’m a 24 year old climber and artist from San Jose, California. I’ve been climbing for 17 years, mainly sport but recently am stoked on trad and adventure climbing. I discovered trad and reignited my passion for climbing after recovering from a hiking accident that left me temporarily paralyzed from the waist down. After re-learning to walk and picking up a rack, my stoke is higher than ever. I’m excited to continue exploring the adventurous side of climbing and pushing my limits on bigger walls and higher mountains!
