On February 12, blind climber Erik Weihenmayer scaled frozen Bridal Veil Falls near Telluride, Colorado, which TPL recently helped to reopen for climbing. Also on the climb was Chad Jukes, and Iraq war veteran who lost a leg to an explosive device. It was the blind athlete's second climb celebrating TPL's efforts to protect recreational access in Colorado and nationwide.

  • Also, doing a W15 blind... good god man...hats off.

  • It's so awesome that this got reopened. I'm glad that whoever made that decision on the land recognized it was something of a climbing culture mecca. I hope no one abuses that trust.
