29 Oct Dawn Wall: Tommy Caldwell final go?

 

Since 3 seasons, Black Diamond athletes Kevin Jorgeson and Tommy Caldwell have teamed up  for an attempt at free climbing a new 1000-meter route on Yosemite’s El Capitan on Dawn Wall,  that roughly follows the aid line Mescalito and, when free climbed in a single-push, would place it as unquestionably the hardest, most demanding big wall free climb ever.

Tommy Caldwell is in the Valley right now, gearing up for a ground-up free push starting next week and supported by his wife, Becca, and his 61-year-old father, Mike. Stay Tuned!
