Alex Honnold on 60 Minutes
In case you missed it on Sunday, the venerable CBS show 60 Minutes aired a 13-minute segment that we helped shoot on Alex Honnold’s free-soloing exploits. The piece can be seen online at the links below, along with two entertaining “Overtime” segments that get behind the scenes with Alex and the film crew.

Hats off to 60 Minutes producer Jeff Newton and host Lara Logan for doing a great job presenting climbing, and free-soloing, to a broad audience, and for capturing Honnold’s unique personality. We’re honored to have been a part of the show, and to be able to continue following Honnold on his amazing journey. Big thanks to the rest of the crew that joined Pete, Frosty and Kyle on the wall, including filmers Mikey Schaeffer and Ben Ditto, and rigger Dave Turner.

In an inconent search for the James and Stasia wiki page, I simply googled James Ofsink and this is the first hit that attracted my attention. Why this posting about Mr. Honnold. Why not a more recent blog? Damn, I just can’t seem to get away from that kid. AHHHHH
Great blog. Great.
