Leo Houlding is one of the world’s foremost adventurers. He’s an alpinist, a big wall climber, a base jumper, and a terrifically articulate advocate for all of the above. In this film (below) from Coldhouse Collective, shot by Tyler Pycroft, Houlding leads a team of five on a first ascent of the northwest face of Greenland’s stunning Mirror Wall–an objective taller than Yosemite’s El Cap, and far more remote.
