Black Diamond Athlete Carlo Traversi writes, “the depth of your will can only be explored through experience.” And so he came up with the idea to do a triple 14 challenge—to climb a V14, 5.14, and a 14er in one day.

With new ascents, new feats of strengths and new discoveries constantly raising the bar, a climber’s perception of what’s possible is always shifting. But perhaps the greatest proponent behind the ever-evolving standards of what’s truly challenging lies within one simple act … that of giving it a darn good try.
