Borneo Video Dispatch #6 - "Free As Can Be"
The commute from base-camp on the ridge is over: the team commits to the wall. Life in the vertical world is based out of two hanging portaledges. Kevin and Conrad push the line higher into virgin terrain as Alex, Mark & Jimmy drop below to free climb pitches previously aid climbed. Alex shows how free climbing on first ascents, climbing without pulling on any mechanical devices, is a bold progressive climbing style. The rain has been torrential with only a small solar window each morning, so video size remains small. Best, reo- The North FaceTrackBack
