Watch Ethan Pringle on Highball First Ascent of Old Greg V11

Ethan Pringle sets his sighs on some impressive highballs in the Little Egypt sector near Bishop, California. Know for its massive pyramid shaped boulders, Little Egypt provides stunning lines for those with the balls to climb them.

The cold Eastern Sierra climate offers prime conditions for sending hard lines, and Ethan uses the wintery weather to his advantage in the establishing of some nails first ascents. In this video, we catch Pringle as he works the gigantic Old Greg V11 on top rope, before enlisting the help of half of Bishop (and, more importantly, their pads) for his attempt at the first ascent.
