WE STILL CLIMB.
That is the message this year. Regardless of the many challenges we've endured as a team, our patients need us now more than ever. So, we still climb for them!
Every dollar raised through our Elite Team goes directly to high-quality patient care through ROMP. It is the most direct translation of mobility: our vertical steps up a mountain = a patient's first steps in our clinic. How impactful is that?!

In mountaineering, things don't always go as planned. That's why you train to preform your best while also being prepared for the worst. Honestly, no one could have prepared us for 2020; there is no crevasse rescue training for this situation...
Our 6th annual Climbing for ROMP Elite Team would have been landing in Quito, Ecuador today to acclimate for a week before attempting Cotopaxi on September 25th. While we are devastated to not be together on the high peaks of Ecuador, our mission of lives on and therefore . Our goal is to raise $100k for amputees in need of prosthetic care! Our 2020 team will be climbing 19,347 ft together in separate locations Sept 25-27 to represent what our team would have done together had things gone as planned.

The surgical scar from Caitlin Conner's amputation reminded her of a row of monstrous teeth. She called the limb "Rex," and ever since she's been tearing obstacles to shreds.
