    In 1925, climbers undertook a 65-day expedition to achieve the first ascent of Mount Logan. One of them later wrote, “At that moment, at least, the joke was on the mountain rather than on any of us.” The post The Epic First Ascent of Mount Logan, Canada’s Highest Mountain appeared first on Gripped Magazine. https://gripped.com/profiles/the-epic-first-ascent-of-mount-logan-canadas-highest-mountain/

    In the 90s, Dave Hume was one of the Red River Gorge's original kid crushers. After climbing became a family hobby, Dave Hume got obsessed—and left his own mark on the sport. In this episode, we talk about what it was like being one of the original Lode Bros, bringing 5.14 to the Red with his ascent of Thanatopsis in 1996, and the one time he beat Chris Sharma in a competition. He shares the story of how his dad and brother bolted the infamous Breakfast Burrito, one of the Red’s most classic 5.10s, and the sense of discovery of finding new crags like Drive By and Bob Marley. Plus, we cover the early evolution of the Red from trad to sport climbing, reminisce about Miguel’s before they sold pizza, and how Dave repeated Just Do It, the U.S.’s first 14c, in an insulting few tries. Dive in to hear some fun stories from this Red River Gorge local hero. https://americanalpineclub.org/news/2025/12/19/local-hero-dave-hume-on-bringing-514-to-the-red-in-the-90s
