10 Years of Climbers Against Cancer – Film
John Ellison knew he was dying of cancer. But he wasn't going to take it lying down. He had a vision, that the climbing community would unite around a common cause, to raise funds for research and awareness about cancer. We lost John along the way (Dec 27, 2015) but his vision came about and is still going strong 10 years on. Join us for the worldwide premier of this film – The CAC story... so far, as related by some of our Ambassadors (including Alex Megos, Pete Whittaker and Jesse Dufton) and some of the great causes we have been able to support over the last year (including ‘Climbing Beyond Cancer’ in Canada; training for Radiotherapy to treat children in Nepal; and the ReMove program to get Prostate Cancer patients exercising).
North America Big Wall, El Cap, Yosemite - Talk
Dominic Oughton and Bill Deakin have each made numerous ascents of El Cap, including half a dozen routes together. Join them for the latest of Bill and Dom’s Excellent Adventures on one of the less well-travelled routes up The Big Stone, visiting iconic spots like The Black Dihedral, Cyclops Eye and Igloo, and taking in a bit of ‘Fridge Surfing’ along the way. A light-hearted look at what it takes to climb El Cap, including the all-important art of Big Wall Poop Management!
