THE GOOD

Claudiu Miu is a Romanian and Balkan climbing champion. Claudiu is an anomaly of sorts when you meet him since he is fairly quiet, reserved, kind, and borderline very shy. You would never know he is a very good climber because he doesn’t talk about it much, (like most do). Because of these traits you would never believe the strength or determination he exudes while on the mountain tackling tough climbs and overhangs. 

His passion for climbing took him all over the world. By age 28 he climbed: “ Freaks of the Industry”, a famed bouldering route in Rocky Mountains National Park, CO rated grade 8B (the grades are from 4 to 8C+). He continued to climb in England, Bulgaria, the famous Indian Creek area in Utah (crack climbing), Ti-Cino in Switzerland, Glenmore Lodge in Scotland (famed for mixed rock and ice climbing), the Matterhorn, and many more.
