It's amazing how Scott was able to remember even the tiny details of each move on the route. Goes to show how much the climb stuck with him. Beautiful!
There's so much potency in this film. Some power imbued into all of this, down into its depths, and the way this film was all done allows the viewer to access it and feel it. What a great thing you've all done here. To everyone involved, thank you :)
This has to be one of the most beautiful climbing videos I've ever seen. You really captured something amazing.. It's been 20+ years since I've climbed at Joshua Tree but even I felt somehow interconnected with all this. Thanks for sharing.
Man, 3 years out and this video still is really powerful, can’t wait for new giant rock videos. This was so masterfully put together, thank you for this
Hey dude thanks so much, means a lot especially right now as I've been in a slump for the past year. However, and I'm not BSing here, I am half way through the edit of my next video and while it's not another New Deal level doc, I'm really excited about it and can't wait to share it soon, definitely within the month.
This film, your Giant Rock films are a revelation in climbing films. They tell a story. I’ve been touched by each one I’ve seen. You tell these stories that all climbers have experienced in some fashion. You make these stories and the awe of climbing available to laity. Thank you.
This is just such a beautifully moving portrait of a climb and the two men who come to 'know' one another through it. More than the line, more even than the stunning production values of the documentary, what I am left with as the credits roll is a sense of sadness but hope. Thank you so much for this wonderful film.
Unemaginable that he was able to put up such a climb 23 years ago. Also sad to hear that he was gone so soon. RIP. He will be missed but his routes will be there 4ever, so everyone will remember him.
awesome, i was living in yucca and climbed at the tree for about 5 years, the best climbing times wandering around bouldering in the endless possibilities!
This is great to see more of Scott's stuff his voice and impressions. This was a great production more power to ya. We need to see more of Scott Cosgove's routs and any footage that anyone has on him. God Rest His Soul we will not forget his contributions. He was an unsung climbing hero of the Stone Masters with out being in the movies. His stuff is going to be like Van Gogh . Lets get some more undiscovered Cosgrove material showing his grace. Its great to see the new generation climber having some class. Good Man.
Brings back so many memories for me. I started climbing the Yosemite/JT areas in 1984 until 2007 when I left CA. Scott and Randy and John and Ron K, and so many many names. Thank you for this. Beautiful story and very well made.
That is one of the best climbing films I’ve ever seen, thank you Cole. Scott is a legend and inspiring far beyond his climbing accomplishments. And Alan is a super inspiring climber in his own right. Really cool to see Scott narrate the sequences.
I haven't climbed in almost 30 years now, but I used to spend weekends at J Tree. There's no place like it, and I will never forget the feeling of the place, or the Hardman heros of that time. I did my first and only free solo there, a 5.11 on sight. Magic vibes there. Beautiful film!
Thank you. and yes pretty crazy, and that both took ground falls. Even crazier is that for all of Bachar's history with sport climbs he died soloing a 5.10 sport route.
I teared up at the end. RIP Legend. I will one day try a route of yours to test my skillset, endurance, strength, mental game, everything. Man I’m so sad, and so inspired at the same time. RIP ❤️🤙🏾
Substantial. Coz was one of the leaders of the nomadic tribe in JTree/SoCal back in the '80s From cordless 3-mile 2000ft/eL, circuits--to waltzing up the hardest routes, it was an amazing crew!
Absolutely amazing film. Exactly what I needed in these times to keep the psych up. Thanks so much Scott, I've never climbed any of your routes before; but this film inspires me to try them. RIP
Beautiful film. Scott Cosgrove is a legend for his vision. RIP
Thank you, he is a legend for sure!
It's amazing how Scott was able to remember even the tiny details of each move on the route. Goes to show how much the climb stuck with him. Beautiful!
This is the kind of climbing video i want to watch.
6:46 - "a first knuckle half digit sloper ... on an overhanging wall"
Now forever known to me as a 'cozzie'
haha I love it!
There's so much potency in this film. Some power imbued into all of this, down into its depths, and the way this film was all done allows the viewer to access it and feel it. What a great thing you've all done here. To everyone involved, thank you :)
Thank you Tracy that means a lot!

Thank you so much!
This is a masterpiece. Absolutely breathtaking. Amazing climb, amazing story, amazing production. I am blown away right now. RIP Coz
thanks man that means a lot!
Scott was a friend. A Legend .. Forever missed.
Man, 3 years out and this video still is really powerful, can’t wait for new giant rock videos. This was so masterfully put together, thank you for this

This was a terrific short film worthy of any international festival. The historical aspect and memorial to Scott Cosgrove were a wonderful touch.
Thanks Jason, I thought about going the festival route but then just decided F it I'm just gonna get it out there, glad you enjoyed it!

Legend. Rest easy my friend you are not forgotten.
Great story, very well done video. A joy to watch ! I love the sentiment: "like getting to know an author by their books" :)
Thank you so much and I love that line too!

By far my favourite climbing channel- greetings from Scotland 🏴
Thanks Dylan!
Beautifully done.A real tribute to a visionary climbing legend.
Unemaginable that he was able to put up such a climb 23 years ago. Also sad to hear that he was gone so soon. RIP. He will be missed but his routes will be there 4ever, so everyone will remember him.
This was magnificent! The line was beautiful,the repeat was impressive and the filming was perfect. I really enjoyed this!
Thank you very much!
Probably one of the best climbing films I've seen. The score was perfect. Well done.
Thank you so much.
Awwww man! Thanks for this. Scott was a great climber but more a great person. Friendly, honest, and generous. 🙏
I was so blessed to get to meet and hang out with Coz before he passed and you are 100% correct, such a nice, cool dude!
My favorite climbing video ever. Outstanding videography and story board. Scott's narrative was so cool and informative. ...until the end. RIP Scott.
What an amazing story. So sad, but so beautiful. One of the best climbing short stories I have watched.
thx so much!
Very cool to watch him relive his experience through you! Definitely brings the stoke to the next level
Really a perfect capture of the allure of Joshua Tree - all through a very inspiring story.
Top video, top route, big climbers.
Scott R.I.P
Thx so much!
What a beautiful and moving film. Thankyou for taking the time.
awesome, i was living in yucca and climbed at the tree for about 5 years, the best climbing times wandering around bouldering in the endless possibilities!

I agree, I would love for more footage of Scott to come out of the woodwork. He was a bit of a lone wolf and he did not seek the media spotlight.
So Alan is like Coz. Really tall...and a sandbagger. Love this. This is amazing props to Alan for getting it done. Thanks for sharing this.
"Really tall" is subjective. Coz was 6'2. Alan is maybe 6'0.
That was simply AWESOME!!! So well done!!! Thank you I really needed this today!
Brings back so many memories for me. I started climbing the Yosemite/JT areas in 1984 until 2007 when I left CA. Scott and Randy and John and Ron K, and so many many names. Thank you for this. Beautiful story and very well made.
Thank you and I'm glad to hear it brought back some good memories.
Rest in peace Scott. Great way to continue to remember him. Thanks for this.
Beautiful story. SO much respect for the vision and execution. I'm humbled every time I go to JTree.
Thanks Vincent!
This is one of the best climbing videos I have ever watched. You pulled off a moving tribute video AND a pumpy send video. So very well done!
Thank you so much, I'm super happy with how it came together.
Fabulous. Besides the great climbing, I loved the generous spirit captured in the film.
Thank you very much!
This video have its magic, gave me chills, and the time seems to stood still at certain points in the film... great send, and RIP.
Thanks dude!
That route looks so heinous! Awesome video!!!
That is one of the best climbing films I’ve ever seen, thank you Cole. Scott is a legend and inspiring far beyond his climbing accomplishments. And Alan is a super inspiring climber in his own right. Really cool to see Scott narrate the sequences.
Thank you so much, I'm super psyched how it all came together.
Fantastic narrative, great climbing, a touching tribute.
Thank you so much :)
Lovely. Such great content. Wonderful editing. Delightful music. Cozzy sounds so happy. A masterpiece.
thanks so much!
RIP Scott. You are a true legend
RIP Scott. You were truly an inspiration.
i talked with him a few times about josh. he was very humble and cordial. Much respect
This is one of my new favourite climbing films. So cool and an amazing tribute
Thanks dude!

Awesome...truly beautiful...RIP Scott...
Really beautifully done. Crazy that both he and John left us at age 52.
Thank you. and yes pretty crazy, and that both took ground falls. Even crazier is that for all of Bachar's history with sport climbs he died soloing a 5.10 sport route.
Great film and tribute to Scott
RIP Scott! Incredible video
I teared up at the end. RIP Legend. I will one day try a route of yours to test my skillset, endurance, strength, mental game, everything. Man I’m so sad, and so inspired at the same time. RIP ❤️🤙🏾

Bravo!
Awesome route, splendid peoples! Peace from Ukraine, despite we have the War here.
this is so good
Thanks dude!
Congrats, Alan!
