Introducing: Written In Stone
WRITTEN IN STONE: CLIMBING’S MOST IMPORTANT ASCENTS
Written In Stone tells the (mostly) true stories of the most groundbreaking ascents in rock climbing history. Hosted by Kris Hampton, you’ll hear the narrated, sound-designed stories about what led to new levels in climbing, alternated with conversations with today’s top climbers about what inspired them about what went down way back then.
Season One is focused on the 1990’s, and will tell the stories of how sport climbing came to dominate, how women climbers made their mark, and explore the characters who made it all happen. Moon, Skinner, Güllich, Hill, Nicole, and more!
Like Todd Skinner always said, “Never let the truth get in the way of a good story.”
Written In Stone is created by Kris Hampton and Ryley Rush, and is brought to you by Plug Tone Audio.
Kris talks with Amy Skinner and Joan Chase about how the founding of Wild Iris Mountain Sports is inextricably linked to the rise of climbing in Lander, Wyoming.
