John Middendorf, “Duecy” in the Valley, was the leader of Big Wall climbing in the 1990s. His first ascent of the Atlantic Ocean Wall on El Capitan was the springboard for adventures in the Great Ranges. The ascent of “Grand Voyage” set a high bar for self sufficiency and determination. The photos of the tower and post summit portrait are courtesy of @acekvale, photographer on the expedition. Xavier Bongard and John are seen racking up for the Swiss – American Route on the North Face of Angels Landing, Zion. John applied his engineering expertise to designing and manufacturing wall climbing accoutrements. The art of @johnjmcmullen ushered in the brand and along with watercolors from John Svenson of Alaska. The Beak, an adaption of the CrackNUp envisioned with Jim Bridwell, helped open up the arcane craft of aid climbing. The D4 hammer is well respected and sought after if the task necessitates a hammer. He designed the Cliff Cabaña portaledge and then later the D4 ledge, spinning the axis and bending corner technology. John’s knowledge of climbing history and equipment has helped us understand where we are today and the importance of documenting the past. Funny storm slide courtesy of Jimmy Dunn. 30 years ago we climbed Cerro Torre together. The memories of base camp with Kennan, Topher, Ermanno, Paul, Rolo, Teo and a host of others center on keeping occupied during bad weather. We had a lots of fun. With empathy for the family of John. #climbing #bigwall #portaledge #yosemiteclimbing

@whitmoreandrew works with rocks. If you’ve driven around Western United States there is a good chance Andrew has worked on section of highway you’ve driven. As a high scaler (professional trundler) he makes sure the choss doesn’t end up in the grill of you car. Climb around southwest Montana and Andrew’s handiwork as a route developer is ever present. Andrew is one of the “silent crushers” around here. Over the years Andrew and Zana @zuzanadrobnik have contributed to our community. While it would be sweet to share beta for crags we have worked on together, today’s post is about life and the challenges we continually face. This past winter Andrew was diagnosed with stage 3 colorectal cancer. For a man with boundless energy and a love of nature this is a tough set back. Zana and Silas are with Andrew in Oregon. As we all know – “cancer sucks”. Treatment is along the lines of poisoning (chemotherapy), burning (radiation therapy) or cutting (surgery). Andrew is taking all this like he does climbing – one move at a time. Climbing is about teamwork. We share a similar goal and work towards the summit as a team. We come together and help each other out. For Andrew and his family, as he stares down the “route” of cancer, it’s more than building a tent platform or getting snow for the stove. Collectively we have the opportunity to help out. While we send thoughts and prayers for a speedy recovery, our medical system doesn’t accept thoughts and prayers. There is a real cost to this. This is where we come together as a community. It’s our responsibility and our insurance net that we accept when we find community. It could be us next. If you have a moment and would like to pay it forward into our community net, please consider a donation to Andrew, Zana and Silas. We are all in this together. #cancer #climbing #gofundme #linkinbio #thankyou #gratitude Search go fund me ➡️ “Unite with Andrew, Zana and Silas to Beat Cancer” ✅🙏🏼

Climbing brings us together. Once you challenge yourself with gravity and share this experience with your friends something changes. It’s the international language of belaying and spotting. It’s the same everywhere. You have to trust someone to achieve your goals. @memphisroxclimbing has been a flywheel for the good that climbing brings. Built in the shell of a supermarket with a state of the facility, Rox is bringing gym climbing and outdoor experiences to South Memphis. With a pay as one can model, the gym is open to everyone. Climbing as I was introduced to it was free. The cliffs were at end of the road and my dad and his buddies had the gear and knowledge. I still recall the moment when climbing and being outdoors latched on. It’s that same emotion that we see with the people we welcome to the crag, mountain and gym. Let’s keep that going! The freedom that climbing brings comes at a cost. The facility and staff are monthly obligations. In business, as in climbing, the unexpected happens. In this case a burst water pipe needs immediate attention. To keep Rox a safe place (it’s a polling station, health care facility and restaurant) the security team needs immediate funding. Going without costs the program more. Rox has been a part of my life for the past six years. I’ve made new friends, shared backcountry experience & knowledge while climbing outdoors and learned from each other on how to address the challenges of race in the United States. If you believe in the mission of @memphisroxclimbing please consider a donation. It will be put to good use. If you have the chance to visit Memphis, stop by the gym. You’ll find family by the time you have warmed up. #thankyou

@otherworldly__antarctica is the title of a new book by Edmund Stump, Emeritus Professor, School of Earth & Space Exploration, @arizonastateuniversity. Ed taught geology for 37 years and conducted 13 research expeditions to Antarctica. In “Otherworldly Antarctica” Ed combines photography and watercolor illustrations to teach us how the landscape is created. The Rock Cycle illustration helps us understand geologic time. Ed’s brother and field guide in Antarctica, the late Mugs, is pictured on the cover of Mountain Magazine – 1981. Mugs invited me on an expedition to Denali with Ed and Paul Fitzgerald in 1989. We did geologic profile of Denali. “Otherworldly Antarctica” is published by @uchicagopress and is is available through their website //press.uchicago.edu/index At $28 it is a great value – order via the University of Chicago Press and enter UCPNEW at check out for a 0 discount. Thank you Ed for the knowledge. #otherworldlyantarctica #antarctica #landscape #landscapephotography #mountains #climbing #ice #rock #wind #watercolor #geology #glaciology #earthscience Book, archive, Sceptre Transantarctic Range photos by Edmund Stump

Starting the hype train for Summit Journal’s Fall 2024 issue — just 2 months away! — with this little sneak peek. We’ve got a story for the ages from the late great Jeff Lowe queued up. To publish anything by Jeff feels special. To have a foreword by @conrad_anker ? That just takes it to a whole new level. The only way to read the pairing of these two icons? *Subscribe now*
