Beschreibung:

Three men who would become legends of the sport, Jim Bridwell, John Long, and Billy Westbay complete the first NIAD (Nose in a Day), having time left in the day to go to the bar and party with their climber friends after the ascent.


"We were over 2500 feet up the wall now, into the really prime stuff. Here the exposure is so enormous, and your perspective so distorted, that the horizontal world becomes incomprehensible. You're a granite astronaut, dangling in a kind of space/time warp. And if there is any place where you will understand why men and women climb mountains, it is here in these breezy dihedrals, high in the sky."
- John Long
