Scott Shafer David Scott Committee Members, Douglass Shaw Head of Department, Gary Ellis December 2009 Major Subject: Recreation, Park and Tourism Sciences iii ABSTRACT Who Are Climbing the Walls? An Exploration of the Social World of Indoor Rock Climbing. (December 2009) Jason Henry Kurten, B.B.A., Texas A&M University Co-Chairs of Advisory Committee: Dr. C. Scott Shafer Dr. David Scott This study is an exploratory look at the social world of indoor rock climbers, specifically, those at Texas A&M University. A specific genre of rock climbing originally created to allow outdoor rock climbers a place to train in the winter, indoor climbing has now found a foothold in areas devoid of any natural rock and has begun to develop a leisure social world of its own providing benefit to the climbers, including social world members. This study explored this social world of indoor rock climbing using a naturalistic model of inquiry and qualitative methodology, specifically Grounded Theory (Spradley, 1979; Strauss & Corbin, 2008).

  • The Seattle Times, Seattle, King Co
    The Seattle Times, Seattle, King Co. WA, 4 Apr 1989 LEGENDARY MOUNTAINEER DIES AT 81 SEATTLEITE 'OME' DAIBER INSPIRED - AND SAVED - MANY A CLIMBER Author: DON DUNCAN For nearly 40 years, the cry ''Call 'Ome' DAIBER'' rang out whenever a mountain climber or hiker was lost or injured in the Cascade or Olympic mountains. Daiber invariably responded in the only way he knew: He would drop the carpenter tools with which he earned a living, push away a half-eaten meal or climb out of bed in the dead of night to assemble gear in the Bothell-area home he stocked like an Alpine hut. Daiber, a mountaineering legend, died Sunday in a local nursing home at the age of 81. At the end, the man who always said he expected to live to 100 had lost his eyesight, both legs and his ability to speak. But every mountain-rescue unit that goes out in answer to a call for help is carrying on the tradition he began. Built like an Alpine fir - short (5 feet 6 inches), weathered and resilient - Daiber could scramble around on snow and ice for hours, then hold a news conference to let the public know what had happened up on the mountain. For years, virtually every major mountain-rescue story in the Northwest began or ended with the words, ''A party led by Ome DAIBER . .'' In 1948, DAIBER co-founded the Mountain Rescue Council with Dr. Otto Trott and Wolf Bauer. The Seattle-based Mountain Rescue Council became a model for similar councils all over North America.
