    Just got done watching the full 2 episodes on reel rock and that whole thing just looks absolutely insane!! I’d be stoked to be there😅

    I’m Vegas local who doesn’t climb, but loves scrambling and hiking all the canyons on that side of Red Rock. Absolutely insane to think about doing all of that in one go. Also just makes me feel very grateful to live so close to such a special and beautiful place. Great video!

    Crazy effort. Soloing epinephrine after crushing it through red rock for a day and a night without sleep. Unreal.

    As someone who hikes/backpacks a little bit and climbs even less, this is mind-blowing to hear about an adventure like that. So inspiring knowing something like that is even within the realm of human possibility. It honestly makes me want to start pushing myself harder to be able to accomplish something in a similar spirit.

    Thank you for sharing. I've climbed in Red Rocks a few times - I start reading through the list of climbs... nodding... uh huh I've climbed that, oh yeah and that too... oh... then the word downclimb!! Oh... no... I couldn't do that ;o) and solo, wow. Well done Alex on the whole traverse and well done Chris for keeping-up to film :o)

    I'm proud to say I did just one of these (Tunnel Vision). Been to most of the other peaks, but by easier routes.

    Wow. His fitness level is astounding. The impact of sleep deprivation in decision making is well documented and his ability over such an extended period of time is mind blowing.

    • @constantinosschinas4503
      @constantinosschinas4503 Рік тому +1

      I think he got really dumb at this point. Although the feat itself is surreal, intentionally free solo climbing with no sleep is plain stupidity, not a challenge. Someone should remind him that climbing should be fun.

    That was a great interview! I was wondering why it stopped at Black Velvet and not Windy Peak, but you discussed it in the video and it makes sense. Going further south provides less challenges. Congrats on your journey Alex and great interview Chris.

    Well this would be near impossible to fully film. Each of those peaks are like full day hikes for fit people 😂
    Woukd be cool to get footage of Alex climbing those peaks though, even with a rope. Red Rock Canyon's mountains are a hidden treasure.

    • @mountainhighadventures
      @mountainhighadventures  Рік тому +3

      They made a movie out of it. It’s on Reel Rock 17. It’s called HURT, aptly named Honnolds Ultimate Red Rock Traverse. The footage is amazing. Look it up.

    It is time for Alex to start just having fun and not caring about pushing the limits. He has achieved enough already. Solo climbing while being sleepless starts to sound very dumb, not impressive.

    Do not glorify a risk taker. I ride a motorcycle and wear full gear because you can never predict every fatal danger. Being prepared with safety gear goes a long way mitigating external random situations. He's the equivalent to riding without a helmet, in flip flops, and t-shirt. Moto GP riders wouldn't even think about riding without. Not a fan.
