Patagonia, Argentina: El Mocho Climb + BASE


It's been quite the transition from Peru, volunteer mode, to deciding to come to Patagonia, with virtually no internet, to attempt a climb and jump of a beautiful wall beneath Cerro Torre, El Mocho.  Only 3 people, all professional sponsored climbers, previously jumped in this area, and I am the first woman. I have realized a great dream and lifetime achievement with the help of some very amazing people, including my love, Chad Milton. It took months of planning and hard work to make everything finally come together. Several people stepped in and supported our goal when we needed it most -- We could not have done it otherwise! We leave Patagonia with love and respect for our new friends, great respect for these mountains, and the knowledge bestowed upon us by both mountains and friends alike. Video with the epic story to come ;)
