Alli and Elliott met at the UTC climbing gym in 2011. Alli thought Elliott was hot stuff—an effortlessly badass climber who seemed completely out of her league. Over the next year, their paths kept crossing—at the gym, in the grocery store, even at concerts. After each encounter, Elliott would text something like, “It was great running into you today.” Alli would reply, and then... nothing. Radio silence. Finally (and we do mean finally), Elliott’s roommate stepped in and called Alli directly: “Would you go on a date with Elliott?” Alli replied, “Yes—but that’s not up to you or me.” A few days later, Elliott texted: “Want to grab lunch at Greenlife and climb at LRC?” One climbing date in 2012—and the rest is history.

Who made the first move? How? Elliott's roommate. He was drinking a bottle of wine, watching a rom com, and feeling the love. He decided to play match maker. Cheers to Jordan White for that! What's your favorite activity together? Climbing, paddling, mountain biking and skiing. We love adventuring in the outdoors together no matter what the activity is! What's the most memorable trip you have taken together? We mountain biked with some friends in Fruita. The vibes were right, the biking was rad, and the setting was stunning. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect trip. Second to that is when we climbed in Thailand in 2014! We’re on the same page about: What's important to us- spending time with the people we love most. (You all!)
