Nice work fellas! The cassin ridge is my long term goal. I was wondering what yall did in the lower 48 to prepare for a huge route like that? And how do you manage a month out like that?
@natekenneyvt18 күн бұрын
@@LucasAndrews-f5r thanks! in 2016/2017 i was living in Vermont and had already done an alaska range trip the previous year. The climbing on the cassin is never above M4 but its super long so cardio and efficiency is paramount. To do it in this style with a narrow weather window and a single bivy you should aim to be solid on mixed terrain up to at least M6 and be comfortable soloing WI3 and fast and efficient on vertical ice. I prepared by doing solo circuits up in smuggs before work, so knocking out 2 or 3 easy multi-pitch ice routes. Also did some harder cragging. In the spring new england isnt climbanle so i focused on running and climbing laps at the gym with a weight vest. Learning glacier travel and crevasse rescue as a team of 2 is good too. Id recommend doing liberty ridge on rainier or some smaller AK routes like ham and eggs, East ridge of 11300 as a warm up

Love the video and your story! Thank you Scott for your service...it is appreciated greatly. Do you know of Lane Johnson? Regarding first ascents, I believe he climbed many of those routes (maybe not the mixed routes) in the early '90s. He was pretty Unsung in the old days, but a seriously driven ice climber from NW Montana.

Great job on Black Magic! Just wondering... why leashes on this route but not in the other climbs? Not sure why all the hating on leashes, I personally am a fan of them.
@natekenneyvt Жыл бұрын
Those are umbilicals / teathers not leashes. Leashes go around the wrsit. These are to prevent tools from being dropped but they cant be rested on. Matt probably used them because you have to switch from hands to tools a few times in the lower corner and its easy to drop a tool doing that

@natekenny thank you for the clarification. I've been totally misinterpreting that nuance this whole time! I've been tethered BUT unleashed 😀😀

Very inspirational film!.......... I can relate as I suffer from a complicated GI disorder which has had a tremendously negative impact on the quality of my life.............A long time climber, I have not been able to get out for more than a decade..........now in my late 50s, I wonder if I will ever climb again? This film has inspired me to not give up and make it my mission to get back out climbing once more - thanks for sharing your story - !!!

This is really cool to me as I was born in Libby and I spent my young childhood in Troy where I still have family. We moved to the Bitterroot and i have lived here ever since. I have felt the same calling looking up at those mountains and I also started climbing. I've done a bit of climbing here in the Cabinets. I did a solo summit of snowshoe peak that was Amazing, as is all of Montana. Thanks for sharing your story.
