@alexhonnold composed and casual, free soloing 2,000 feet above the deck on the Enduro Pitch of Freerider. Full extension with mere finger tips in contact with the granite, feet smeared on nothing. Alex’s process to prepare for his dream of free soloing El Cap was an incredible, sometimes-stressful journey to witness. But it was unquestionably mind-bending to watch.

The shot. Getting the shot.
@deanpotter on Concepcion in 2003, soon after he’d established the climb. At the time, it was one of the hardest and certainly most striking cracks in the Utah desert. Dean was a good friend. We shot together a lot over the years. It was always an adventure. He pushed me to the brink more than a few times. He had high expectations of himself and high expectations of the people around him. He can be credited with my obsessive prep on high angle shoots; I was terrified of messing him up or slowing him down on the wall. Shooting with him was good training for life. Dean was also intensely creative and such a visionary that some of the things he pioneered are now their own specialized sports.
Complex and sometimes misunderstood, he could be soft spoken one moment and a gladiator the next. He could also be extremely mischievous and loved a good laugh (sometimes at your expense). He always seemed to push the boundaries personally, physically, mentally. It was non stop. There was an urgency to his life that was hard to keep up with. I would listen to him after what would be a casual day for him, knowing it would have been the pinnacle of most climbers’ careers. I looked up to him a lot. I would say live like Dean but none of us would survive a day trying.

A few pics from the just released deluxe version of There and Back.
Hope you all enjoy the larger format cloth bound book, clam shell case and archival print that comes with it. Each book is personally signed. Won’t fit in a stocking but would probably be a good find under the tree🎄
Limited run…

The 7,000-foot northeast face of Mount Tyree, Antarctica. The remote mountain ranges way down south have an indescribable draw – always have for me and it seems they always will.
