Tommy Caldwell Sends Hard Routes At His Monastery
For over five years Tommy Caldwell has been attempting a free climb of El Capitan’s Dawn Wall with partner Kevin Jorgenson.
In training for this year’s attempt, Caldwell formulated an audacious goal that would bring him to his home crag in Colorado, where it all began, at The Monastery.
The 30-pitch Dawn Wall includes thirteen, 5.13 pitches and seven 5.14 pitches, three of which are 5.14+.
When completed, the Dawn Wall will be the hardest big wall free climb in the world.
