By the time you read this, a man with Cerebral Palsy may have just finished climbing El Capitan in Yosemite. Steve Wampler is climbing El Capitan in an effort to raise money for his foundation which provides wilderness camps for disabled children free of charge. It's an extremely impressive endeavor, and I wish him the best of luck! Here is a a video describing what he is trying to do with the climb, and interview with some of the kids it will benefit
I figure I'm just going to dedicate this Weekend Warrior solely to Steve. This next one sums up the first few days of him on the wall. The last 30 seconds is rather touching. If you feel so inclined, please click here to support Steve's cause.
