Steph Davis - CHOICES Full Movie 

uh no. It's not like she's not building a staircase or anything for other people

get over it and yourself. Climbing is inherently selfish. Go do something for other people instead.

Jane Goodall is another amazing person who radiates an energy that's positive and infectious.

Absolutely. I've learned to appreciate the work and knowledge of those whom also learned back in the film days. It really shows. Most striking was that both shallow depth of field with bokeh and shallow depth of field without bokeh were employed. Very few people who learn today grasp the difference and why it is both useful and important.

I don't think so.

It was not illegal but it was highly frowned upon due to the video Mr. Lynch and him made. Not illegal poor choice making a video about it.

@@weeedy1369 I think it was not allowed to climb on any named Arches in the park at that time. But I am not an expert on that. Anyway, everybody was upset about it because clearly Delicate Arch is not a climbing goal or it should be. Let's enjoy this thing before it falls apart tomorrow or in 500 years. Who knows.

Potter soloed the arch several times. His wife, Steph Davis, snapped some photos of the ascent, and Lynch returned with a video camera to capture the climb on film. rockandice.com/lates-news/dean-potter-on-laws-modern-america-and-soloing-delicate-arch/

True, but there has been and still is a long standing tradition of not climbing named features in the park; and they also found rope marks in the rock.

I agree with you Tom

Several times, Casual and Pervertical routes

Yes! Most beautiful crack climber on this planet!

The casual vid is on RU-vid, it's pretty sweet

Seems like this was shot a while ago. Steph and Ian married. Ian had a serious accident that broke his legs badly and has been recovering, but he has had to change careers

I would also like to know ...

I just wondering the same...

Shazam it

We tried that with no luck

Ah man, was thinking the same thing. Any luck?

Just looked him up on google and he was portrayed badly here. It casts doubt on the whole content of the video.

@@networkbike543If memory serves, he claimed to have found a way to climb and exit the arch without causing any damage. It may have been true but ranger's noticed new rope scars they believed he had left and the whole of the climbing community turned on him for years. It was pretty ugly. Not only did Davis get implicated by association there were climbing groups boycotting Patagonia as he had been one of there climbers at the time. I think climbing it was clearly a case of bad judgement but I've always given him the benefit of the doubt as far as leaving damage. But I don't think Steph or the video production folks are trashing him here. She took a horrendous hit during that period and is just recounting that part of her life honestly as opposed to glassing it over.

How exactly did they talk sketchy about Dean Potter? They never mentioned him by name, and like it or not, the whole Delicate Arch climb blew up negatively.

@@wittesco They directly talk about him and mention him by name. Did you watch the same video?

How so? Maybe lost in translation, but I was merely expressing an opinion on the unfair reasons they lost their 2 main sponsors at the time... well documented in Steph's book "Learning to Fly".

Don't know the song, but it is very similar to Bruce Coburn's Lovers in a Dangerous Time

I just wondering the same...

She's a soloist. Base jumping is way safer!
