“Alpinism is all about carrying lots of stuff and being all encumbered,” Honnold observed. They were loaded down with cold weather gear in their packs, endured icy conditions and high winds, and had just one sleeping bag between them. There are several possible modifications that can be made that are all available upon download. This app can disable and enable your keyboard, but it can also change the key mappings and apply special functions to regular keys. Compared to free soloing, which Honnold has said is as simple as “walk up with your shorts, a t-shirt, and a bag of chalk and climb,” the Fitz Roy traverse was a far more complicated undertaking. Karabiner is a free software that can customize your keyboard. With Tommy Caldwell, Honnold completed a first ascent of the Fitz Roy Traverse in 2014, which links seven peaks in five days along Patagonia’s Cerro Fitz Roy (also known as Chaltén) ridge line. Maybe not my hardest ever, but very satisfying either way,” Honnold told National Geographic Adventure a month after the feat. “For me personally, it was a new challenge just because it’s a different style of climbing. Before attempting the ropeless ascent, Honnold and climber Cedar Wright cleaned the route, and Honnold climbed sections attached to a rope to assess the conditions. In January 2014, Honnold free soloed the intimidating 2,500-foot El Sendero Luminoso (“The Shining Path”) in El Portrero Chico, Mexico. The pair set a new record of 2 hours, 23 minutes, and 46 seconds-13 minutes faster than the previous record set in 2010 by Dean Potter and Sean Leary. Less than a week after the triple, Honnold and renowned speed climber Hans Florine attempted to break the record for the fasted climb up the Nose route, “which is the nicest line up the middle of El Cap,” Honnold told National Geographic Adventure that year.
