Written in Stone: Climbing HistoryAuthor: Plug Tone Audio
Written in Stone tells the (mostly) true stories of the most groundbreaking ascents in rock climbing history, one decade at a time. Hosted by Kris Hampton, youll hear the narrated, sound designed stories about what led to new levels in climbing, alternated with conversations with todays top climbers about what inspired them about what went down way back then. Season Two is focused on the 1980s. The birth of sport climbing as we know it, the struggles with changing rules and ethics, the women who paved the way for the superstars of the 90s and 00s. Patrick Edlinger, Jerry Moffatt, Wolfgang Gullich, Catherine Destivelle, Lynn Hill, and more. Like Todd Skinner always said, never let the truth get in the way of a good story.
