This is by far one of my favorite shots I have ever captured. I’ve only seen this in a movie and in magazines.
Shout out to the badass female tackling this crazy line 🙌🏻
There’s something to be said when wandering around Yosemite all day and ending the afternoon up at Glacier and Taft point with these massive views insight. Walking out to Taft point is amazing with the vastness of the valley floor beneath you. It’s an even better experience when you stumble upon a group of highliners tackling the line 7800 ft above the valley floor.
Highlining is slacklining at elevation above the ground or water. Many slackliners consider highlining to be the pinnacle of the sport. Highlines are commonly set up in locations that have been used or are still used for Tyrolean traverse. When rigging highlines, experienced slackers take measures to ensure that solid, redundant and equalized anchors are used to secure the line into position. Modern highline rigging typically entails a mainline of webbing, backup webbing, and either climbing rope or amsteel rope for redundancy. However, many highlines are rigged with a mainline and backup only, especially if the highline is low tension (less than 4,000 N (900 lbf)), or rigged with high quality webbing
