you know when this was all said and done
I’ve you know I’ve been helping with
time-lapse and shooting b-roll here and
there and stuff and I really love to be
involved in this filmmaking process and
at the end I was like you know I would
love to edit this piece I’m happy with
this a little edit that you guys are
about to watch
China has one of the most surreal
landscapes that I’ve ever experienced
these ancient cars formations have been
sculpted by wind and water and millions
of years of erosion into these beautiful
natural sculptures behind me is the
great art which is a prime example just
how unique and beautiful these
formations are the next month is for
sure gonna be an adventure I’m here with
my good friends Emily Harrington and
Matt Siegal and we’re here to explore
the limestone karst formations that are
unique to this part of the world
the legendary National Geographic
photographer Carsten Peter is going to
be documenting the entire journey so
pretty psyched to see the photos I need
to shoot now we are probably in the most
extreme environment for limestone
formations and it’s always nice to have
people for scale or just the adventure
to climb the whole mission started at
the stone forest which 270 million years
ago was seafloor and now through time
and erosion is hundreds of square miles
of freestanding limestone spires
so one of the craziest things about
about limestone in general especially
the lamps and China is to think about at
one time this was a sea floor and all
the limestone was living coral
essentially which it’s really wild to
think about how you know you’re climbing
on these things and you know a really
long time ago probably millions of years
ago they were alive walking inside that
stone for it yeah it’s like it booted
what nature can form yeah it’s it was
stunned by the beauty running around in
a wonderland just having fun and getting
to climb on some of the coolest and most
unique formations any of us have ever
climbed up I mean food in some beer
that’s the kind of spirit behind these
expeditions things develop always
different than you expect there are
funny quirky situations the drive was
supposed to be five hours we drove for
11 hours and now it’s my time in reading
street food
we dimension to the grill
it’s first eating up clearly the most
adventurous this is damn solutions
the trip to yangshou was long but it was
definitely worth it we got there and we
saw what an amazing place it was
yangshou is the city that’s extinct next
to this beautiful river the center of
countless massive cars to arch the moon
hill art it really is a surreal place
and these Hodges are maybe the release
of former caves they just got eroded and
what just stays behind as a giant Hajj
and it was just the mind-blowing what
our time was we were able to do there
the stone here from the liming
perspective is just it just calls to you
it’s very inviting and you know not only
is it spectacular but it’s amazing to
climb online and offers up super
gymnastic athletic movement but it can
also be very adventurous sometimes
dangerous but always beautiful
I’m really hoping that this half an hour
drive takes three hours we thought moon
Hill was going to be like the most
amazing arch we were gonna see we
arrived to get to and were like oh wow
okay this is the great arch every
morning the Sun shines right through the
arch so we spent the first couple days
working on this huge route that went all
the way up the left side of the arch and
then with one day left we gave it the
full Hail Mary attempt this is our
chance to send the route so hopefully
things go well but no matter what we’re
gonna get a climb on a spectacular route
in a spectacular location hopefully we
can put it all together and there’s a
lot of hard climbing up there so
hopefully luck shines upon us holding on
for dear life getting winded and your
muscles are pumped and they’re sweating
and you’re scared and
but you’re loving it you know that’s
kind of that’s what we came here you
gained a lot of energy and power from
interacting with these in these
landscapes
they are amazing I don’t know how they
climbed these works how they manage
these BOTS overhanging
I don’t know oh you can do it
oh yeah totally that’s all yeah it’s
like geologic like it’s wonder like goes
through some of the wildest formations
of to fuzz and stalactites and kinda
like get back down there’s a big
question mark yeah they sound like you
just drop down the road or else you just
wrap out in the space and be like well
that was dumb
and after the great arch we were
basically like well nothing’s gonna top
that then we head out to ng Grand Canyon
based on some photos that we’d seen on
the internet it looked like some pretty
cool spires and then we arrived for the
most incredible unclimbed spire we’ve
ever seen yeah the full floor love
exploration is maybe new discoveries or
you went you to new territories or on
the news summits I mean it’s exciting
we’re gonna be heading to the summit of
one of the wildest towers never seen
forget sight flash it will grip NiCd
hell yeah
it’s one of the most beautiful towers in
the world and we were the first people
ever to climb it this is incredible
what’s really crazy about this is we
spent one month in China and we went to
so many different areas that were
totally different it just goes to show
how unexplored the China is looking back
on all of the wild formations that we’ve
seen it’s just it’s incredible but this
is all in one country you go into a
landscape like this and it affects you
and it changes you as a person inspires
you I got a great satisfaction and also
great desire to continue it makes hunger
for more because you want to have more
of these experiences and you want to
maybe stand on one of these towers
you
I’ve you know I’ve been helping with
time-lapse and shooting b-roll here and
there and stuff and I really love to be
