Matt Wilder recently did the 3rd ascent of Sonnie Trotter’s traditionally protected route The Path (5.14 R) at Lake Louise, Canada, and he put together this excellent video that gives a great idea of what the climbing (and protection) is like on the route:

That was amazing. Really inspiring to see such a great climb and climber. The route is like a sport route with Trad gear. Perfect!

Really awesome.
