Climber: Jonathan Siegrist.

This is a short climbing film for which I shot, produced, and edited for Arc'teryx. It features their team athlete, and good buddy of mine, Jonathan Siegrist, on the first ascent of "Pure Imagination." At the grade of 5.14d, no doubt this is one of America's great new sport climbing test-pieces, and a strong testament to Jonathan's ability as a rock climber. It was filmed over 2 cold days in The Red River Gorge on Kentucky, in which I was able to snag over a dozen angles of the route. This film has over 40K hits on the Arc'teryx Vimeo Channel. November 2010.
