New 5.13+ Multipitch By Trotter & Caldwell In Canada
Sonnie Trotter and Tommy Caldwell have teamed up to establish a 15 pitch route up the Diamond Face on Mount Louis in the Canadian Rockies. Dubbed The Shining, the route has 7 pitches that were bolted on lead with difficulties up to 5.13+. After three days of prep the pair returned to free all the pitches in a single push:
It is one of the best routes I have ever climbed, and I could not imagine having a better partner for it. In fact, if it were not for Tommy, it would definitely still be a project. He’s my ultimate hero.

PCI Pro Clinic Series
Earlier this year I announced a partnership with PCI that was met with decidedly mixed reviews. While that partnership is still developing (perhaps a bit slower than expected), PCI is continuing to evolve and better define their mission. In this guest post from PCI founder Kevin Jorgeson he shares a bit more on PCI’s mission as well as their developing Pro Clinic series.
