I haven't had much time for social media lately, but this video of a 300lb dude climbing V5 pulled me out of hibernation.

People often ask me about my favorite reads, and it’s always hard to answer off the top of my head. So here is a list of some I’ve enjoyed over the years, in no particular order. What would you suggest me to read next? kilianjornet.substack.com/p/…

Alex Honnold has given away about a third of his income since 2012. How he’s doing it may teach us about how to give better. Post columnist Michael Coren joined Honnold for a climb to learn why he thinks people are playing it too safe with their giving. wapo.st/4yQX4to

Happy birthday to the GOAT 🐐
Born on this day, September 17, 1944, Reinhold Messner, one of the greatest mountaineers of all time. On May 8, 1978, Messner and Peter Habeler became the first people to reach the summit of Mount Everest without using supplementary oxygen, proving that what many had considered impossible could be done. On August 20, 1980, he went even further, reaching the summit of Everest alone and without bottled oxygen, the first solo ascent of the world’s highest mountain. Then, on October 16, 1986, Messner reached the summit of Lhotse, completing all fourteen of the world’s 8,000-metre peaks. He became the first person in history to climb all fourteen eight-thousanders, and he climbed every one of them without using supplementary oxygen. More than four decades after his top climbs, he is still here to share the memories of his execeptional life in the mountains. Happy 82nd birthday, Reinhold Messner!🙏 Photo © Roberto Carnevali.

This commercial nails the difficulty of eating an entire pizza on lead & understands the solution to the problem is a smaller pizza you can eat mid pitch.

Seek and you shall find
For years, I have known about a cave on Mt Willard cliff (Crawford Notch) that's only accessable by rock climbing. Finally found a picture online courtesy of Mountain Project. Devil's Den. Some accounts say 10-30ft into the Mt. Cool curiosity.
