Steep

I'm guessing most of you folks have seen it, but for those that haven't, check out the movie "Steep" It is a documentary of the evolution of the big mountain scene. I thought it was pretty awesome checking out the French extreme scene back in the 70's and the evolution of the Alaska scene in the early 90's. Also I know Ingrid Bergstrom, but I didn't realize just how bad-ass a skier she really is. I didn't think it was quite as good as "Riding Giants" for surfing, but still awesome.

Out of the mist; Renan Ozturk


Renan's still going big.  Real big.  He recently established a new route on the Trango Tower in Pakistan.  Days before that he established five new routes on a 3000 wall next to Denali's Ruth Glacier.  Uh, right, here's his web site and blog.  Spend the time to check out his ART and MOVIES links.  The dude is going off.
