🏕️🧗‍♂️ Halfway through an epic week at OWA’s Wyoming Summer Camp! From climbing crags to campfire hangs, our crew of teens is living the good kind of wild—challenging themselves, building confidence, and making memories that last way beyond summer.

This is more than just camp—it’s community, adventure, and growth in the great outdoors.

✨ Know a teen who would thrive in something like this? It’s not too early to start dreaming about summer 2026.

Our hearts are heavy as we think of our friends and neighbors in Kerrville and the surrounding Texas Hill Country who were impacted by the recent floods. We’re sending love and strength to everyone who has lost so much and to the first responders working tirelessly to help.

If you’d like to support those affected, here are a few ways you can help:

💙 Kerrville Flood Relief Fund — set up by the Community Foundation of the Texas Hill Country: www.communityfoundation.net

💙 Crux Climbing Center — our friends at Crux are donating 100% of all day pass sales on Wednesday, July 9th to flood relief efforts. If you’re in Austin, come climb and know your visit will directly help families in Kerrville.

Let’s come together to lift up our community — every bit helps. 💙

Summer guiding season is officially ON, and we kicked things off in the best way—climbing at Elevenmile Canyon with a powerhouse group of future lady crushers 💪🧗‍♀️⁠

These young climbers brought the stoke, the strength, and the sunshine—and we couldn’t be more psyched for what’s ahead this summer.⁠

Here’s to building confidence on the rock, cheering each other on, and making memories that stick longer than chalk on a harness 💥🌄

🧗‍♀️ Guide Spotlight: Erin Wackerla
We’re proud to highlight one of our amazing OWA guides, Erin Wackerla!

Erin began guiding with OWA in 2023 and quickly became a vital part of the team. With mentorship from OWA owner James Faerber, she earned her AMGA Single Pitch Instructor (SPI) certification and has continued to inspire others through her leadership and skill on the rock.

A passionate climber for over 15 years, Erin has explored crags across Texas and the western U.S. She’s currently the Board Chair for the Austin Chapter of the American Alpine Club and brings a thoughtful, inclusive energy to every climb she leads.

But Erin’s impact doesn’t stop there. She’s also the Co-Founder and Director of Programs at , a nonprofit that provides outdoor experiences to support long-term recovery, build community, and promote healing. Erin’s personal connection to recovery gives her work—and her climbing—a depth that resonates with the people she serves.

When she’s not climbing, you’ll likely find her enjoying horror movies with her husband and their three giant dogs. 🐾🎬

We’re lucky to have Erin as part of the OWA crew, and we can’t wait to see what she does next!

Guide Spotlight: Meet Matthew!

Born and raised in Austin, Matthew got his start climbing the rugged limestone and granite of Central Texas, with early adventures at Enchanted Rock and Reimers Ranch. Since then, he’s explored some of the best climbing destinations across the U.S., with a special love for the big mountains out West.

When he’s not crushing on the wall, you’ll find Matthew in the kitchen, deep into a board game, lost in a good book, or moving in new ways just for the challenge of it. He brings not only a passion for climbing but also a commitment to safety—he’s a certified Wilderness First Responder and an AMGA Single Pitch Instructor.
