Manage episode 484972004 series 3485503
Hamish McArthur has been making huge headlines in the climbing world lately with his send of the highly sought after second ascent of Megatron [V17]. He quickly followed that up with another V17 second ascent of No One Mourns The Wicked, on his first session! Yes, that’s right, Hamish sent a V17 in a few hours.
Hamish is an incredible person through and through and it’s a pleasure to get to peer into his process and hear about his path from “Good to Great”.
