In the past week I have seen a short on the making of “Free Solo”, watched the TED talk you linked to, and now seen the film itself. An incredible movie and worth seeing on a big screen to see the scope of El Capitán. Even if you only climb the stairs I recommend this film. And with winter approaching you can camp in Yosemite Valley to see it in real life without the crowds. If you go in winter, wear shoes.
LOL! Hiking barefoot indeed!
Haha, Fred I love how our sense of humor lines up!
Coincidentally, I hiked barefoot yesterday and busy with blog now 😁
First time for this year and my feet still sore 🙄
I hope they are feeling better today, hiking barefoot is like building pain tolerance for the time you step barefoot on a Lego.

We love beating barefoot! Can’t way all the places we’ve hiked I would be brave enough for it though
Speaking of “barefoot” and El Capitan…

I’d expect nothing less Fred! Thanks for sharing!
