A buddy and I went into the Cabinets during the first Covid lockdown in 2020, happened to run into Scott and Marlin on their way out. Very cool to meet those dudes and the climbing in there is fantastic!
Only just found this video...what an amazing story...beautiful how Scott seems to have founded a 'mini' community there...and what routes !!!!! Hooe that you're still following your desires 😊
Proud to say I’ve put up an FA in this fantastic area! Can’t wait to get back. Glad you documented all of the hard work Marlin and Scott put into the Thunderdome - fantastic bit of film
Great video! This is going to be my first year on ice and I'm absolutely stoked. This story really resonated with me and I see a lot of parallels to my own life. Thanks for the inspiration!
Beautiful climbs but I am NOT a climber so I am in awe of you all! How wonderful that Scott overcame his health issues and was able to realize his dreams. Gorgeous job Nate!
This is really cool to me as I was born in Libby and I spent my young childhood in Troy where I still have family. We moved to the Bitterroot and i have lived here ever since. I have felt the same calling looking up at those mountains and I also started climbing. I've done a bit of climbing here in the Cabinets. I did a solo summit of snowshoe peak that was Amazing, as is all of Montana. Thanks for sharing your story.
This is a life experience really worth sharing. I wish the best to everyone going up the Cabinets and I hope to get there some day. Thanks for making everybody aware of this hidden gem
Very inspirational film!.......... I can relate as I suffer from a complicated GI disorder which has had a tremendously negative impact on the quality of my life.............A long time climber, I have not been able to get out for more than a decade..........now in my late 50s, I wonder if I will ever climb again? This film has inspired me to not give up and make it my mission to get back out climbing once more - thanks for sharing your story - !!!
Love the video and your story! Thank you Scott for your service...it is appreciated greatly. Do you know of Lane Johnson? Regarding first ascents, I believe he climbed many of those routes (maybe not the mixed routes) in the early '90s. He was pretty Unsung in the old days, but a seriously driven ice climber from NW Montana.
I have never heard of him but I dont doubt he did many of those back in the day though. Classic old school stoic ethic of climbing it and dont tell anybody.
Hands down the most inspiring climbing video I have seen in a long time.
Thank you Mark! That means a lot

Amazing video. Glad it's back in the algorithm.
Thanks! Was it not in the algorithm for a while or something?

Awesome film and a great story to tell.
Well done! Very inspiring story. Montana ice looks amazing.
solid output in many ways. good on ya !
Lovely film Nate! keep up the great work.
this is a beautiful film
Thank you!
Rad video Nate!
I think wheat grass juice with lots of raw fruits and vegetables would have worked better and faster. What was the reason for the soup?
Cool video but yes locals do go in there in winter
Nice ! Like to check it out.
wow
“Apparently nobody had been in there in the winter…” nobody you knew of! Locals go in there in the winter all the time. 😄
background music just ruine this great video !
What about the music was not good?
@@natekenneyvt no music is the best , just the sounbd of the ice
