- In 2017, I finished a big goal of climbing and skiing all 90 lines in "The Chuting Gallery," a steep skiing guidebook to the Wasatch. This was a lifelong achievement and one of my proudest moments. Follow Through shows the journey to get there.
From the production team:
"People have opinions about skier Caroline Gleich: Inspirational. Gumby. Social media star. Role model. Model masquerading as a mountaineer. At sixteen, she stumbled upon a copy of the cult classic guidebook The Chuting Gallery. Irreverent and wonderfully arbitrary, the guidebook lays out a set of 90 ski mountaineering lines across Utah’s Wasatch Mountains. They were difficult and dangerous. When she first said out loud she wanted to ski them, she was met with laughter. “Maybe it was because I was five feet tall, or I was a little blonde girl, but I remember that clearly - and it didn’t feel good” says Gleich. After a decade building her skills, Gleich set out to complete her vision and become the skier she dreamt of being. “Follow Through” is a story of loss, belonging and desire for respect. In this age of hyperconnectivity, which voices do we choose to hear and which do we ignore?"
I am so grateful to the team at Duct Tape Then Beer and REI for supporting me in sharing my story.

(I also saw your Cho Oyu climb video and your courage to get back to it after a HAPE really shook me up, you are definitely unbelievable)
