There is something far deeper that drives the world’s most elite group of mountain adventurers to take life threatening risks.
Watch Dirtbag: The Legend of Fred Beckey on Amazon Prime Fine Linesĭescription: It’s not about adrenaline or thrill seeking. Director Dave O’Leske spent the past decade filming Fred Beckey with unprecedented access, getting to know the mythical man in the mountains of China, across North America and in his Pacific Northwest home. This success marked the beginning of Fred’s epic tear of first ascents around the world, during which he became the consummate “Dirtbag” climber: defined as one who forgoes material comforts and defies societal norms in pursuit of a nomadic mountaineering lifestyle. In 1942, the Beckey brothers cemented their place in alpine lore when the teenagers survived an incredible second ascent of Mount Waddington-considered the most difficult climb in North America at the time. Watch Valley Uprising on Amazon Prime Dirtbag: The Legend of Fred Beckeyĭescription: Hailed as one of the most prolific, influential climbers of all time, Fred Beckey’s adventures began in Washington’s North Cascade range with his brother Helmy in the 1930s. Valley Uprising is the riveting, unforgettable tale of this bold rock climbing tradition in Yosemite National Park: half a century of struggle against the laws of gravity and society. And up on the walls, generation after generation has pushed the limits of climbing, vying amongst each other for supremacy on Yosemite’s cliffs.
Watch Meru on Amazon Prime Valley Uprisingĭescription: In the shady campgrounds of Yosemite valley, climbers carved out a counterculture lifestyle of dumpster-diving and wild parties that clashed with the conservative values of the National Park Service. Meru is the story of that journey, an expedition through nature’s harshest elements and one’s complicated inner demons, and ultimately on to impossible new heights.Įditor’s Note: Meru is a recent classic. Meruĭescription: Three elite climbers struggle to find their way through obsession and loss as they attempt to climb Mount Meru, one of the most coveted prizes in the high stakes game of Himalayan big wall climbing. Prime Video has the largest selection of climbing movies listed here-though it’s closely rivaled by Outside Watch when ranked by free-for-members content. Each of these services requires its own paid subscription.
Note: This list will be updated as new films are added and removed. So if you’re looking for a way to hide while also enriching your knowledge of climbing lore or perpetuating your psyche or just watching Hollywood get climbing incredibly wrong, consider some of these climbing movies available on popular streaming services. If you’re anything like us, a certain amount of distraction is in order. There’s been a pandemic for two years, and most experts believe it’s still going on. It’s basically spring but still feels like winter.
