We shared food, drinks and stories, danced and climbed together. All of this would not have been possible without the incredible generosity of Minimum Bouldering. Yesterday was a special day, our new friends from Quetta, Ghazni and Panjshir received the R Pass that allows them to go bouldering for only 5 Francs whenever they want.
