LGBTQ+ FUNDRAISER
In the words of the designer, Melina Baron-Deutsch (@baron24m): "The design in this collection represents our LGBTQ+ climbing community here in the 505. The watermelon represents our beautiful Sandias that turn bright pink at sunset and have been a playground for many climbers. The trans flag on the hot air balloon represents the Trans Senders group. Our LGBTQ+ Climbing Group the Rainbow Senders turns a year old this summer! What better way to celebrate than by sporting this design?
This was based on the first time I ventured outside to climb with Caroline and she is featured front and center as she has been instrumental in uplifting diversity and inclusion efforts at Stone Age, especially for the Rainbow and Trans Senders groups."
