Zoe Brown
Hey All! My name is Zoe, and I live in Flagstaff, Arizona with my partner, Wilson, and my dog, Rusty! I guess you could call me an all around rock enthusiast–I’m a geologist and a climber–so a lot of my time is spent thinking about rocks in one way or another. Flagstaff is one of the best places to live for climbing outside year-round. We have incredible backdoor access to boulders and crags, a passionate climbing community, and almost 300 days of sun every year. We’re also not far from world-known climbing areas like Bishop, Red Rocks and Joes Valley. Wilson, Rusty and I prioritize spending as much time as we can climbing outside locally and elsewhere. One of my biggest goals as a climber is to be as well rounded as possible. To me, this means progressing both physically and mentally in bouldering, sport, and trad climbing.
