🚨 Volume 02 Cover 🚨 @seanbailey on the First Ascent of Duality of Man 5.15d/9c. Shot by @neilson.ben Last 48 hours to subscribe for this year’s Volumes 03 + 04. Link in bio. 01 Jul 2026 No One Mourns the Wicked V17. Happy birthday to my boy @nathaniel.coleman . Impressed and proud to watch Nathaniel complete the vision and complete the wall on this one. Daniel Woods had mentioned to me and Nathaniel a few times over the years that Defying Gravity had a potential low start. But at the time we figured the Jimmy Webb method was so crazy, a low start seemed so improbable. Fast forward to last year. Nathaniel, Charlie, and I all went out to check it out. It took Nathaniel 8 days to do defying gravity; 8 days to do one move. We joked about the low start through out that trip. But I honestly thought Nathaniel would never go back. It’s a long drive, 2 mile hike in form the parking, and it seems impossible to climb 8b/ V13 into a move that low percentage. But this year Nathaniel was coming off of rehabbing an injury and decided to check out the move again to see what else can be learned… And here we are. Check the video out about his process on @mellowclimbing Always thanks @thenorthface for the support 🙏 02 Jan 2025 No One Mourns the Wicked V17. Happy birthday to my boy @nathaniel.coleman .

Spring 2024. @shawnraboutou on an old project high in The Frey. On our final day in the Frey @caronorthofficial, @shawnraboutou, @cedarwright and I ventured up to climb and film on the Piramidal feature. @caronorthofficial had a birthday send of the classic finger crack Fuego de Poder and Shawn tried the project to the right. Stay tuned for a film project coming next year showing Shawn taking one of the biggest whips I’ve ever seen in person… especially considering it’s not in a giant cave 😂. @thenorthface_climb 31 Jul 2024 (5/6) Bariloche, Argentina. Spring 2024. @felipe.camargo on the second ascent of this Valle Encantado Stunner, Maracanazo. 9a. This was a cool route to film for a couple reasons. It was bolted by the local developer Ariel Martorello in the center of one of the most beautiful sectors of Valle Encantado. @shawnraboutou, @felipe.camargo, and @honngy were all trying it off and on through out the trip. Ariel would come and watch them try. Shawn ended snagging the FA on one of his last days in classic “last day best day” fashion. On the day Felipe sent, the day we took this photo, Ariel came around the corner and got to see his Vision completed. They both hugged and shared the moment, a really cool moment in climbing and cool moment to document and experience. Cheers to Ariel, Shawn, and Felipe for bringing to life a beautiful one. @thenorthface_climb 29 Jul 2024 (4/6) Bariloche, Argentina. Spring 2024. @honngy waiting till the last light on the last day to link up this first ascent. A nice contribution to an already stacked cliff at the Black Wall in Valley Encantado. @thenorthface_climb 24 Jul 2024 (3/6) Bariloche, Argentina. Spring 2024. @felipe.camargo on the first ascent of Tupa Tupa 8c+. This route shares a start with the mini classic 8c Reacción Indirecta. This route was one of the first hard routes in Valle Encantado many years ago. Very cool to visit it now and photograph Felipe finishing off the bolted vision to the right so many years later. @thenorthface_climb 17 Jul 2024 (2/6) Bariloche, Argentina. Spring 2024. @bretteharrington dancing up a beautiful 8b arête in Valle Encantado. Much of our time was spent at this classic crag. Sampling classics, climbing old projects and bolting new ones. @thenorthface_climb 16 Jul 2024 (1/6) Bariloche, Argentina. Spring 2024. @honngy on the Pared Blanca classic “Tarugos y Bananas” 8c. Big shout out to Matty for this trip. Alongside producing, directing, and photography, he was also bolting and climbing at a really high level. Super impressive and very challenging to wear that many hats 🙌. @thenorthface_climb 09 Jul 2024 Defying Gravity Nathaniel and I had talked about filming on this for years. But busy schedules never aligned and we kept putting it off. This fall was the season. He was motivated and I was free. The @bearcam video of @jwebxl doing this boulder almost a decade ago lived in both our climbing psyche as the definition of RAD. I felt lucky and stoked to document @nathaniel.coleman and @charlesbarron go to battle with this iconic boulder. Even sweeter was getting to watch @a.geiman (the man who originally brought movement to this stone) reconnect with this problem and get nail bitingly close. And cherry on top of this was watching @noahwheels pioneer new campus beta while getting the coveted 3rd ascent. Pretty amazing couple weeks spent out at thunder ridge.
