Outside To Screen Three Climbing Films Online

Outside magazine has announced plans to screen three more climbing films online. The mag has held a couple of these sessions in the past, including a screening of Cold with filmmaker Corey Richards, but this is the first time they're hosting a triple-feature.

The screening is set to take place Thursday, March 22nd, at 7PM Mountain Time. That is exactly one week from today. Each of the three films come to us from the talented crew over at Sender Films and feature some very well known names in the adventure community. Those films include Swiss Machine, which features Ueli Steck climbing in the Alps and Himalaya; Fly or Die with Dean Potter, who deftly mixes free climbing and BASE Jumping; and Alone on the Wall which follows Alex Honnold as he attempts a freesolo of Half Dome in Yosemite.

After the films are shown there will be an online Q&A session that will include Ueli and Dean, as well as some of the cameramen and producers from Sender Films. All in all, it should be a fun way to spend an evening and having already seen a couple of these films, I can tell you that they are quite good. If you're interested in climbing and/or any of these three men, you'll definitely want to put Outside's online event on your calendar for next week.
