Somehow I managed to slip a climbing photo into the @leica_fotografie_international Mastershot gallery 😁. This is definitely a bit out of character compared to what they normally feature. @kinleyaitkenguiding with her try-hard face on while climbing Eugenics War at the Enterprise Wall. Does she stick the move? #rockclimbing #squamish #leicam10r #leicamastershot #sportclimbing

Campbell River — this one’s for you. I first started climbing here 35 years ago, when I was five years old. On March 20, I’ll be back to share the full story — from those early days in Campbell River to climbing and photographing in wild places around the world. I’ll be diving into: • The evolution from climber to climbing photographer • What really happens behind the images • How storytelling in the mountains has shaped my life If you’re into climbing, photography, or just curious how a kid from Campbell River built a life around the mountains — I’d love to see you there. šŸ“ River City Players Theatre šŸ“… Friday, March 20 šŸ•– Doors 6:30PM | Show starts 7:00PM šŸŽŸ Tickets available at On The Rocks Climbing Gym both online and at the gym. #climbing #campbellriver #climbingphotography

2025 in 21,522 frames. When you’re in the middle of it, you don’t always see the whole picture. Looking back, it’s obvious this year was filled to the brim with work, wild places, and amazing people who made it worth documenting. Hears to another great year šŸ»šŸ„‚ #climbing #iceclimbing #adventuretravel #rockclimbing #climbingphotography

Afternoon Sky cragging high on the Chief with @krisdwild and @evanbeatty It’s pretty wild that you can duck out early from work and quickly end up climbing places like this. #rockclimbing #climbing #leica #squamish #climbinglife

Sometimes, no matter how hard you try, gravity has its way of winning! @kinleyaitkenguidinge on Eugenics War at the Enterprise Wall. #rockclimbing #sportclimbing #leicam #squamish #climbinglife

Nothing like getting sandblasted by katabatic winds. Glacier sandstorms are truly a thing! #iceland #mountaineering #glacier #vatnajƶkull
