MENTAL MUSCLE :: Soloing the Trophy Wall

July 14, 2008

“I didn’t put any pressure on myself. I started with Replicant to warm up, then I felt good and climbed the most demanding route, Terminator, and finally felt like I had enough energy left to climb Sea of Vapors safely. It took me five hours, which is about the maximum amount of time for me before my focus and energy start to diminish.”
— Guy Lacelle, Canada’s (and likely the world’s) most prolific ice climber, interviewed on Alpinist.com

Five hours of focus? Guy da man.
