He grew up in an outdoorsy Mormon family and became interested in climbing by reading magazines and rappelling with friends. He went to Snow College in Ephraim, Utah, where he was a rock climbing TA in Maple Canyon. Huff is very technically and safety oriented, with an emphasis on trusting your partner. Topics discussed include the popularity and ethics of climbing, technology, gear, a military class called ""Assault Climbers Course,"" and the environmental experience.
