First Free Ascent in Yosemite, The Liberty Project | Cedar Wright Climbi...
beautiful video which breaks down the FIRST FREE ASCENT of the Southwest face of Liberty Cap in Yosemite by Cedar Wright and Lucho Rivera.
After his friend Lucho Rivera was hit by a falling rock which broke his collarbone, Cedar and Lucho returned to Yosemite Valley to rock climb the first free ascent of The Liberty Project. Could this be one of the best free route climbs in Yosemite? They think so -- you be the judge.
Producer: Cedar Wright

Ascending The Unclimbables
When big wall free climber Mason Earle headed north to the Cirque of the Unclimbables in Canada's Northwest Territories, it was with his sights set on the sheer 2,000-foot SE Face of Mt. Proboscis. The imposing tower of steep, hard granite has drawn climbers from Royal Robbins and Layton Kor to Todd Skinner and Galen Rowell to its remote location for decades due to the massive vertical challenge. Over a 17-day stretch Earle completed a bold new free ascent of the 15-pitch At Dawn We Ride (VI 5.12c R) with the climbing support of Eddie Bauer teamate Katie Lambert, photographer Ben Ditto and Bronson Hovnanian.
Free Climbing Moonlight Buttress
In the big wall free climbing world, the aesthetic sandstone crack system on Moonlight Buttress stands as an iconic line on nearly every climber's life list. But for Eddie Bauer athlete Katie Lambert, one milestone on that multi-pitch testpiece elevated its significance to something greater and much more personal than just a single potential tick on the resume.

"Il s'agit d'une voie rocheuse ouverte en 1968 par Walter Cecchinel et Claude Jager qui fut grimpée piolets aux poings lors de l'hiver 1998 par Benoit Robert et Philippe Batoux.
Une ligne évidente aux longueurs variées et techniques, succession de passages mixte et de dièdres englacés où il faut être délicat.
Vraiment une voie très sympathique pour reprendre contacte avec le mixte en vue de projets plus ambitieux!
J'ai pris tellement de plaisir à grimper cette ligne que j'y suis retourné deux jours plus tard avec Damien." Martial Dumas

Dave Graham - Adventures in Oz (+lista de reproducción)
It's no surprise to me that ancient Aboriginals who first inhabited the Grampians, believed the surreal landscapes and animated structures of sandstone were designed by a creator named Bunjil in a "dream-state". I have searched the planet for the last sixteen years in hopes of discovering the type of stone and setting which can only be conjured through intense imagination, or extremely vivid dreaming.

Arctic Dreams - widescreen
four very excited South Africans and one grumpy Scottish sea dog set sail for the adventure of their lives. After crossing the Atlantic from Scotland, the team did several big wall climbs on the west coast of Greenland and north coast of Baffin Island. The most notable ascent was Improbability Drive on Impossible Wall in Greenland, a new free route that took nine days of continuous living on the wall to complete.
The team then spent another 3 months on Dodo's Delight (their 33ft fiberglass sailboat) winding their way through the Arctic islands of Northern Canada to complete the Northwest Passage to Alaska.
The project is sponsored by First Ascent Clothing, Beal, Black Diamond and Saltic, Mountain Club of South Africa, Gina Watkins Memorial Trust, Shipton Tillman Goretex Award, Clif Bar, Vega Products and Five Ten.
