Ethan Pringle Free-Solos New 5.13 in U.S.A.

Joel Ruscher shows off some of the climbs that he's been developing over the past few years in a new film

Over the course of five days, a camera crew followed crag developer Joel Ruscher to his new climbing area south of Lake Tahoe in California. Ruscher shows us some of the undocumented climbs that he’s been working on over the past seven years.

During the filming, they cleaned a new route that Ethan Pringle got the first ascent of by free-soloing at 5.13.  They called the impressive new line Mirage. Watch the film Pioneer below.
