Meet Jesse Grupper
Jesse Grupper is a professional climber, Olympian, and Mechanical Engineer. Currently based in Salt Lake City, UT, but has all of the spunk of a kid who grew up climbing on the east coast (shoutout to New Jersey!). Jesse continues to push himself in competition climbing where he has 5 World Cup medals to his name (2 gold), and has been on the US Team more than ten times. He also loves the balance of pushing himself on rock. He has multiple 5.15a ascents to his name with Jaws II, Death of Villains, and Full Metal Brisket, and has flashed up to 5.14c with Livin' Astro, and Pure Imagination. Jesse continues to be a steward for sustainability and access initiatives through Protect Our Winters, World Climbing, and Access Fund!
