我覺得我會留在美國,有很大的一個原因是 rock climbing。
更正一下,我今天發現 Rock & Ice 有把他們的 back issues 放在網路上,不過不知道放得多快就是了。比如說,最新的一期是 #197,放在網站上最新的一期 back issue 是 #192。內容一樣,不過沒有那麼多照片。 我今天剛讀完這一篇 Leo Houlding 爬 The Prophet ,強烈推薦, http://rockandice.com/articles/how-t...28-the-prophet 我是先看完他的 video 之後(沒有特別感覺),才看這篇文章的,這篇文章寫得相當好,從他的少年的夢開始寫起,講到幾年後,他的轉變,和他的妥協,9年後終於 free 這條新的路線。 當我讀到這一段,我不禁淚流滿面,他拋棄了一個少年的夢啊。 In May 2009 I found myself once again chilling in the sublime El Cap meadow. It was an unusually wet spring. I was recovering from knee surgery and was without a partner. Staring at the upper part of The Prophet for the thousandth hour, finally my desire to know what was up there overpowered my strict ethics. I walked to the top with a rack and a thousand feet of rope. With some regret, I laid to rest my ambitious dream of an onsight, ground-up ascent as I began a wild solo rappel. |
