Ben that was an incredible effort, and props for the added time and mileage to run back and forth to the camera(and extra time taken) to get all the great shots. I run and shoot vids there too, but there's no way I'm taking time to do the self-shot-running shots! That one of you running by in total darkness was cool. This was perfectly shot and edited, and dude, you're a beast! Boss level!

I was climbing with a group of three people this time so one of them was the designated cameraman! He would be at the top of a different climb to get some of that footage.

I assume you pick up all your rope anchors on the down.

Yep! My partner will follow me up and take all the gear out of the rock, then when we are done we pull the rope down.

Absolutely loved this. Well done. This was my first year ice climbing and I did about 20 pitches and one leadclimb. My season was crazy short.
