  • Paul McSorely, Tony Richardson, Joshua Lavigne and Crosby Johnston travel to the remote Baffin Island with the goal of a first ascent of the North Face of the Beluga Spire. Prior to even leaving for the expedition their local Clyde River guide, Levi suggested they not even make the journey as they were hitting the tail end of the preferred, but short summer season.
    The Beluga Spire is located in the Walker Arm of the Sam Ford Fiord, about 160km boat ride from the village of Clyde River NU.
    After two attempts of battling sea ice, turning a 6 hour boat ride into 12 hours, they landed at the toe of the Broad Peak glacier and bid farewell to their guide team...

    These arc'teryx videos are always so damn gorgeous I can't believe it.
    Not just the location but the cinematography of it is just unreal.

    The final scene was so well done. The music and the cloud soaked peak drifting into the distance. Breathtaking!

    whats is he holding at 1:48? Bear banger.

    • @bourquejocelyn
      @bourquejocelyn 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not even that's a pen flare. And i'm not even sure bear bangers would work against Polar Bears they are vicious. You're only real protection is a 12 ga shotgun unfortunately.

      @granolalish 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      To me, it looked like a 5.9 crack system, but they didn't show all (or most) of the pitches. I would guess it is harder than 5.9.

      ***** That was just the boat gear.

      Arcteryx doesn't make boat survival gear, same goes for climbing equipement, they don't make everything and they are pretty cool about it!

    These climbers are no Mark-Andre Leclercs 😂
    The one with the white helmet has an ego that’s beyond irritating.
    Nice scenery though.

    I really struggle when I see 'adventurers' pushing the limits of a community like this. You were told not to come. that is not a vain statement, clearly Levi knows his stuff. You must have known that you might have to be "rescued". You must have known that federal search and rescue teams don't respond before the locals feel (perhaps reluctantly - and rightly so...) pressed to respond? You must have known that the locals would be risking their lives and equipment if a rescue was needed. Can we hear about your plans for that? Did the team discuss it with Levi and his team? Did Arcteryx discuss ways that they could contribute to the community to make this less of a "take" venture and more of a benefit to the community? guiding fees don't cover it. Perhaps it all a lot less dramatic than what the film suggests. In this case please don't promote the type of epic trip that forges ahead at the unconsenting cost and risk of others, as some noble ideal.

      @bjaminbjamin 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      interesting point of view. We have volunteer rescue here in Squamish and a ton of climbers. Your're right, it is very risky on many levels here or there. More so I suppose up north. Thankfully they sent it, but I did not consider your angle.

      I love seeing brave adventures but hate seeing dumb escapades. Hope to see more of the former and less of the latter.

    • @bhgraf08
      @bhgraf08 ปีที่แล้ว

      The best of the best have to do crazy shi*. Risk is always there but I do understand that you don’t want to but the locals between a rock and a hard place to go rescue them. Interesting thought.

    3:40 Not the best for your brand to show your "athletes" strapping up into Helly Hansen gear because your jackets couldn't keep them warm or dry enough!!

      +Christopher Zatzke Survival Suits are standard safety equipment when navigating arctic waterways.

      Just saying... From a marketing standpoint...
