A Word from Austin Beck-Doss
Simply being in the natural world is my greatest interest. Writing for AllGear Digital allows me to share information about the tools that make my most cherished activities possible. In 2017, I sent an essay to a climbing magazine on a whim and they published it. I then decided to pursue writing about adventure and the outdoors full-time. I enjoy climbing, writing, drawing, and music.
