The tireless duo Tommy Caldwell and Alex Honnold face several setbacks when racing to ascend 17 peaks in the Colorado mountains. Tommy’s childhood friend Adam Stack comes to the rescue in a hilarious and epic adventure.

Time-lapse Photographer Notes: The “holy grail time-lapse” seen above (thus called because it runs from night to day which creates unique challenges) was a super enjoyable endeavor that Rob tackled with enthusiasm and Chelsea assisted on. There is also a second timelapse of this same overnight period that provides a tighter angle of the Cathedral Spires which reign at high altitude near the Continental Divide in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. Both timelapses appear at a pivotal time in this fun and modern classic adventure film that was very much a local video production.
