Valley Uprising – Yosemite’s Rock Climbing Revolution. A Sender Films
\nProduction on the Reel Rock Tour.
\nReel Rock 9: 2014 Film Tour<\/p>\n
The greatest untold story of American counterculture is that of the Yosemite
\nValley rock climbers. For the past fifty years, Yosemite’s massive cliffs have
\ndrawn explorers and madmen to leave materialism behind and venture onto the
\nhigh, lonesome granite.<\/p>\n
The larger-than-life characters of Yosemite carved out an ‚extreme bohemian‘
\nlifestyle in the Valley, living on red wine and boiled potatoes, clashing with
\nNational Park authorities, and pioneering the boldest climbs on Earth. The
\ntorch has been passed down across three generations of climbers; through
\nrivalries, tragedies and triumphs, the art of Yosemite climbing has advanced
\nbeyond anyone’s imagination.<\/p>\n
Valley Uprising is Sender Films‘ magnum opus in the vertical realm, telling
\nthe riveting, unforgettable tale of this bold tradition: half a century of
\nstruggle against the laws of gravity – and the laws of the land.<\/p>\n
