I never climbed to the top of con Peak, but I always see the road that takes you up there on my way to Nascimiento campground

Incredible story, but if his partner broke both legs, we should have heard more about her! Also, why not show a pic of his chest?

What an incredible man

honestly every time i hear of an accident story on a mountain im shocked ppl are always tied together and every time it only causes more injury not less

I appreciate those who climb and share their stories and views. It keeps people like me OFF THE MOUNTAINS to enjoy the majesty from bottom while not causing problems for passionate climbers at the top.

*slid

Discovered your videos by accident and really enjoying them , especially the bike touring. I am a New England’s. Born here and lived here all my life. It’s a beautiful part of the US. FYI for the correct pronunciation of are Mt. Katahdin the emphasis is on the second syllable. Happy trails!

!!!!

Julian, That is a LOT of miles! Could that partially explain your huge thighs? All that pedaling must make for a gr8 workout. Denali has to be magnificent to see in person!!! A video is barely able to do it justice. Thanks for posting, Randy/GA

Mt. Denali's base is at 2,000 ft, and the mountain rises 18,310 feet above that, making it a striking contrast to the surrounding land. Compare that to Mt Everest, which sits on a plateau of 17,000 feet, and rises 'only' 12,000 feet to the summit. Therefore, Denali 'appears' more imposing than Everest.

The Video is crazy good, keep it up man

Roping up to your climbing partner is a very stupid thing to do if you are not setting protection into the mountain. And people will continue to do it because it gives them a false sense of security.

Living the dream man! Can’t have a bad day with those views!

Matanuska! Just had convo last night!

Outstanding post. Glad you were prepared. People please don’t try this. Line drivers who run the road think that bikers are absolutely insane. They make runs where the grade is such that they have to keep it rolling fast or they will not make it. If you get caught in bad weather or if the road gets washed out then there are no trucks for up to a week. Snows in summer. Met a Californian with a new unassembled bike in the Deadhorse airport he asked me to recommend a restaurant. I Kindly recommended he not try this. You have to be accustomed to being around bears and follow bear etiquette. Its all good until it is not, 1. Ride up on a bear kill, 2. Get caught between the cubs and mama, 3. Black bears that have no food. This is a black diamond run. Thank you.

Scared of bears

What was your bear deterrence strategy? Did yiu see many bear along the road ? Did you carry bear spray ? And close encounters ?

Bro fucking went back and conquered it. heh. tight.

How did you get to Deadhorse to start the trip ?

What is your route starting/ending points ?

Thanks. It’s been years since I was up there.

That was one hell of a long climb and detour! I’m a retired critical care nurse and appreciate the details you provided. I can’t even begin to imagine the pain and anguish you suffered. Your survival is a miracle, I can hardly believe that accident was survivable. Both climbers survived to tell their story. So glad you were able to get back to the sport you love! Thank you so much for posting this fantastic story!

You forgot to include the point about how bad InReach carabiners are, and how great Rocky Talkys are hahaha. This dude’s story on The Sharp End (amazing podcast btw) years ago was quite literally the only reason I replaced my inreach biner with a DMM climbing-rated mini locker. Lifesaving stuff.

Took a side trip to Fort Laird NW Territories. There is the original 6" pipe that was run by US/Canadian military forces to get oil to Alaska in the event of invasion. Best

👍Best

What. A. F*cking. Story. Will be recommending this gem to everyone I can. I hope you all keep conquering peaks forever.

Looking for my children's and my name on those signposts. Incredible drive for us 13,500 miles round trip. Best

Quite an adventure. 👍Best

These moments will define you, not just as a cyclist but also as a human being.

I am not the judge of man

Great job!! I bet it was the best trip ever!!❤ You are a rockstar!!

If you don't believe in miracles you should after watching this. God had a different plan for this guy and he's blessed that he was saved. God is good all the time, all the time God is good. Super happy that this guy made it. Thank you Jesus

Beg to differ. I worry about being on the summit when caldera heat below me flashes enough ice into two fates, Steam explosion blowing me away or I fall from sight instantly into a volcanic event...

What happened to the woman? 2 broken legs

What a wonderful adventure you’ve had. Many, hopefully many, many years from now, you’ll look back at that trip and wonder how you did it but you did. The adventure is in you and you’ll always carry that. Blessings to you and thanks for documenting it and sharing with us.

this is such a beautiful video and story, but also... insane dad lore

Dang it. I’m always to late to these videos. I’m from port hardy. Where I’m sure you boarded the ferry to Rupert. Would have loved to chin wag with ya. If ya ever come back through let me know!!
