The Day Tommy Caldwell Sent The Salathe Wall In A Day

Great piece by Tommy Caldwell about how he climbed El Cap’s Salathe Wall in a day just months after losing his finger in a home improvement accident:

But in the blink of an eye, it had all been snatched away from me.

A pale, sad-looking doctor came into my hospital room.

He was a hand surgeon; he was also a climber who had been keeping tabs on my progress.

“Tommy, things aren’t look good,” he said. “You’re going to lose your finger. You better start thinking about what else you want to do with your life.”

Action Directe (5.14d) In A Day By Alex Megos

PlanetMountain caught up with Alex Megos after he repeated the legendary Action Directe (5.14d) in just a few hours this past weekend:

Yes, the thought [of trying to flash the route] had occurred to me but I then quickly decided that this was fairly unrealistic. The dyno at the start is known to be really difficult and it’s proved to be a big problem for many of those who’ve repeated the route and are by far better at dynos then I am. Climbing it in a day was a big enough challenge!
