@JanHemme Amazing! The same ax found below Cerro Torre in 1974, by @bwyvill, Ben Campbell-Kelly, and Jim Donini.
@swkenny Thanks much, Sean, and also to Ed for his work. Stefanie never got the truth, as Maestri took it to his grave in Jan 2021. Stefanie died ten months later. The power of belief defines the human condition. Facts don't matter, they never did. Sad yet astounding in how we press on.
My essay on the joy of walking uphill, alone, on skis. Which is also a reflection on growing old. wildsnow.com/31228/backscra…
@net_benji Heyhey! Thanks for this, blast from the past for sure. I had to watch for a few seconds (before cringing at myself, ha) to jar my memory. Indeed, writing that book was a helluva journey! Thanks, hope you're well.
Socially distant storytime: I'm reading my book, The Tower, cover-to-cover, over the next 16 days. Episodes are free, no ads, no bullshit, but you get what you pay for. Climbers are bored, and I'm no threat to professional narrators. kellycordes.com/book/audio-boo…
New episode of The RunOut is up--and one of our best yet thanks to our two returning guests: @Fredtheclimber and @kcordes. runoutpodcast.com/index.php/2021…
@Danielduane Feel free to send some underestimation our way tomorrow!
@jabrereton Aw, cool! Super glad you liked it. Insane amount of work, so It’s gratifying to hear this. Many thanks!
@JDMabie @SuburbanMtnr Yes, amazing episode!
@JDMabie Ah, cool (I’m a little slow on social media :) — so glad ya like it. Was an ungodly amount of work, so especially nice to see the good words. Thank you!
@EveningSends @enormocast Basis for Sly’s character in Cliffhanger, no doubt. And probably Rambo, too.
@enormocast Fair enough, dude, and challenge taken: I’m refining the world’s finest margarita recipe and reading a book. (You’re welcome for thanking me for my sacrifice.)
The best films from @BanffMtnFest, in my completely biased and highly judgmental opinion. I have zero tolerance for bro-hucks-cliffs-on-loop music videos disguised as films, but Banff delivers. outsideonline.com/2382091/best-a…

My review in @outsidemagazine of the new documentary The Weight of Water, which premiered at the @BanffMtnFest. Layered in ways that force us to consider human qualities deeper than sight. Nice going, @ErikWeihenmayer @SeracFilms outsideonline.com/2369306/weight…
My piece in Outside about risk and the Nose speed record, framed around conversations with my friend @tommycaldwell1 x.com/outsidemagazin…
"I’m just so sick of people dying, and their families left grieving. Then you think of it happening to you..." bit.ly/2t5v3Pr
@SuburbanMtnr Thanks man! Yeah, hearing that from Jack when I was a younger climber had a significant impact. It’s a great image, too, of those guys coming up with that first “rule.”
Fascinating, resonant article in the @nytimes. History repeats on endless loop, the themes always easy to spot in others. When powerful emotions arise, evidence is no match for belief. nytimes.com/2018/04/23/bus…
@javierarias1980 @editodesnivel Gracias, Javier!
