- Peru: Josh and Charlotte's Second stop in South America, and probably the place we connected with the most during our A World Less Traveled trip. It was so good that we spent one month and a half climbing at 4000+ meters, and had to break the Destination Film in 2 pieces. Here the first one : bolting, climbing routes and enjoying the life in the village of Pitumarca.

I looking forward to the bouldering episode!
Awesome!
Amazing Job! Thank you :)
Good job.Great photography.
Wow! So inspiring! I wish we could travel...
impresionante pared y buenos intentos. gracias
Epico
The last climb was breathtaking
Working in one Boulder Gym and an giving lessons in another Climbing Gym and still having enough time for Outdoor climbing already makes me feel very lucky.
But your Job just takes it to another Level. Bravo
Hope the Cameramans enjoy it aswell ;)
Thank's Sven! Fun fact : for our A World Less Traveled World Tour we - Charlotte and Josh - were actually doing it all, both in front and behind the camera... and then in front of the computer for editing! It was for sure a lot but we love every part of it!
Saludos desde México, buen vídeo 🇲🇽
appreciation of that clip on My Mama's a Lamma.
When the video started I was hoping it was gonna be like 6b! hahaha
Can you put a seizure warning on this, the repeated blinking cut is awful.
Peru is amazing. Love the video, the music is not peruvian :(
Tryna find the vine system route
Nice video thanks. I should say that I don't really understand why the video is part of a world less traveled? Do you live in Peru?
Hi Laurent! We now live in the us, but we did our A World Less Traveled World Tour for 18 months starting in August 2017. Now EpicTV is releasing the destination films of this trip exactly 3 years after we were in those places (pretty neat eh ?!). Anyway, Peru was a place we really wanted to go anyway, and through different contacts we got in touch with Coco in Pitumarca who told us there is A LOT to develop there and he could use some help... That's what we love to hear! I hope this answers your question.
@@coldhousemedia first of all, I'm sorry but english is not my mother tongue. Then, thank you for your reply. That does not really answer my question but my question was not properly asked. At first, I did not quite understand that this Epic TV series corresponded to the project of Charlotte Durif and John Larson. Initially I expected a video on local climbing, the possibility of climbing without traveling too much to distant destinations or with ecological means etc. I have since taken a look at the project site. I still don't really understand the name of the project. This being said, your video is very nice to watch.
This is where I am so far...
I will continue to warm the planet by watching videos on climate change.
Take care.
@@laurentdavou I can see how the phrase "less traveled" can be interpreted two different ways. Typically it means areas where less people go, not that traveling isn't required. In this case, not many people have climbed in Pitumarca highlighted by the fact that they say "only 1%" of the area has been developed for climbing. Basically, the series is about going and climbing in places where few people have climbed before.
@@ninjobo thanks for this explanation!!👍🏻
On point 👌
I often wonder about the ethics of bolting a new cliff face, I mean here there are 2 people, thousands of kilometers from home, arriving to a place that was undisturbed by human presence for thousands of year, if not ever, and just drilling away holes to satisfy their pleasure.
I haven't looked too deep into the ethic code, so I don't really know, but it seems to me a bit rude.
maybe not all mountains were meant to be climb, and with so many options, why go for the ones you have to bolt?.
open for discussion..
Hi Adam, definitely a good thought process that we align with!
Every situation is different and I can tell you more about this one! When we - Josh and Charlotte - decided to visit Peru as part of our World Tour, we contacted local climbers and got in touch with Coco who is very active in the climbing community around Cusco. When we mentioned we were interested to help develop routes, he told about Pitumarca, a place that he saw the climbing potential of a few years ago. He worked with the local communities for about 2 years to find agreements about developing the Chacco Huayllasca valley, where the local community already had a road going to villages higher up, a little school, were growing potatoes and other weeds, and were walking their llamas and Alpacas around. Once they had the green light, Coco and a handful of other local and visiting climbers then started developing the endless potential there.
All that to say that we, and I hope nobody, never ever just are "arriving to a place that was undisturbed by human presence for thousands of year, if not ever, and just drilling away holes to satisfy their pleasure". Sport Climbing is an activity/sport of its own and often doesn't have the negative impact that some people may want to attribute to it. It can even be the contrary, like with this example as it's beneficial to the activity of the village.
It is indeed a discussion that is important to have when developing a new area, and it seems like we are on the same page :)
Josh and Charlotte go in to detail about the process for approval and agreements with local communities and leaders in previous videos. Have a watch and learn something!
Hey ! thanks for the response ! yeah I figured you wouldn't just start drilling holes on a cliff. since I am also 1000s of kilometers away, I don't know what was the situation over there, but there has to be extensive research of the area before we, "man kind", go and disturbed nature. as history shows us that many places, along the years, has been completely destroyed by our presence.
I'm sure you were working with the utmost respect to the area and the nature around it, and I'm glad to see someone with experience tackle the job and not just anyone who doesn't know what they're doing.
of course I didn't mean to disrespect in any way.
@@aarondgallegos yeah will do buddy. thanks for the comment.
If you don’t have the fear of death than it’s not fun. That is why my life is fun
Ur hard
Drilling is a nono... destroys the rock
