Thanks for uploading so I can never climb this absolute chosspile lmao

Why are you using locking biners mid-pitch? What is happening here???

super solid!

Hello, just wanted to confirm, is this done in March?

More jugs than a Vegas nightclub

Did you really sling a boulder, clip in, and then continue climbing? Dear god.

Absolutely nuts. This vid was "peak."

Nicely done. Liked the comms between the climbers, too. Solid.

Every day in the alpine is awesome!

Pitch 5/6 anchor - big block is enough (and easier to dismantle the anchor for the follower than what you had there) but place pro (nut/cam) in the opposite direction in case that when the leader falls you don't pull the anchor up. Also, tricams are very usefull for anchor building and you can keep cams. Gz and keep on alpine climbing !

This is most definitely not the highest technical peak in RMNP and not even close to second or third. But nice click-baity title.

It behooves oneself to keep his wits

You guys just had to choose a climb with a bunch of loose boulders and sketchy gear placements, huh?

14:37 - that'll keep me tight

Awesome climb!

“Can you take?” “NO!!”

Holy cow, you guys are underated !

Beautiful view great job, I will be terrified

Awesome climbing! Incredible views and moves

Next time take the mules.

CAUSE MAYYBEEEEEEEEE

No experience? 😂😂😂😂 yeah right

Great Video. It always sucks making the decision to abandon a summit, BUT it is the right decision when you can't do it safely due to weather, light, your own skill/comfort, or other objective hazards. Your attitude about this adventure is precisely what it should be. You got to spend time up high in the wilderness, in a beautiful place with your buddies. Everyone walked away and you can always take another shot at it in the future. I've abandoned summits and come back to summit later. Exercise good judgment and you'll still be climbing well into your 50s and 60s. Good on ya! Cheers.

Good job guys !! ❤

Desert towers 👀👀

I'm glad that you had a good attitude about it, and appreciated the experience that you had. I lead that route about 40 years ago, with a guy that I met in the Jenny Lake campground the day before! We also got stuck for hours behind a large and slow group of beginners, but at the first rappel point coming down off of the summit, and they would not even let us set up and rappel next to them. My girlfriend at the time had been waiting all day at the Upper Saddle because of altitude sickness, and got badly sunburned. She had been wondering what the hell had happened to us. We got back to camp at the Lower Saddle long after dark, and could barely find the tent.

Next hire Exum Guides. They will spend a day with you nailing down your technical skills. You will spend an extra 24 hours at altitude so you won't face issues up high. You can sleep in their cabin so you won't have do carry so much heavy gear. They will nail down logistics so you will leave MUCH earlier on summit day and if you encounter crowds (which you shouldn't if you start early and Exum will alleviate issues with route finding in the dark for you) they will have plan B options on routes to avoid 2.5 hour bottlenecks. If you learn the ropes from experts, next time you and your friends want to try it without guiding help, you will feel far more confident and make much better decisions that optimize your chances of summitting.

I truly loved your video. You were much more prepared and more responsible than I was back in the day. In 1977 I graduated from high school, my girl friend and best friend went on an epic adventure across the country. We drove from Massachusetts all over the west for an entire summer. The last thing we did before hitting the road was pick up a quarter pound of pot and off we went. Since it was 1977 our packs weighed over 50 pounds each. We never made to the top either because of poor weather but to be honest that was a blessing. We had literally no mountaineering experience and almost no backpacking experience either. The altitude kicked our asses. I can remember having sex with girlfriend on the climb up to the lower saddle in the middle of the day. We met some really chill people and had a great time at night hanging with them and smoking weed. Yeah we all had substance abuse issues back then. I returned two more times and had some great climbs. Exum Ridge and others I don’t remember. We spent five days up there once. I lost my climbing shoes on the last belay ledge. I am sure you learned a lot and if you ever return I am sure things will go better. I must add we had no issues with crowds back in the day. Take care and thanks for sharing your adventure.

I have two questions. First is your bed above the driver and passenger seat of the van. Second what rear view mirror do you have. I have a 95 econoline that I’m currently working on and needing ideas. Thank you.

Love the caamp hat!!

in the rock

is that where james franco got his arm stuck

Love Nicole as a Pineapple haha!

Great video! Could have used more Noah Hahan and Zach Bryan but still pretty good! (Lose the bird though she’s so loud)

I miss Arizona

What a monumental video

Sometimes it just works out that it's best to turn back. I enjoyed the video.

Once you get above the tree line, it's still so far lol

What a great shot at 14:45, print worthy!(I may have stolen it as my screen saver, just sayin'...)

good video...never done it in winter with snow shoes its on the list just have to figure out the best route

Amazing video. Thanks for sharing. subd & Like 👍17

This is sick man I wanna start doing it with my friend

I'm going to watch this one. I wanted to watch the one with ''bad weather'' title but I put it off for too long and you deleted it :< are you going to upload it again?

Great video

Did you have a favorite?

My first time up the Grand we climbed full Exum. I did OS the second time No ropes. You guys did great. Wish could have went with you.

Amazing!! You have the perfect perspective…what a feat to do what you did!!

Fun to watch…3 thoughts: great tunes along the way, picklejuice for cramps, and “cheese curds” ALL the way!!

I was cracking up…great job! About 8 years ago we stayed in that haunted hotel and DEF heard noise (clanking) all night. I don’t believe in ghosts but that had me reconsidering!
