POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Something I haven't shared before. Last year in October I joined a team of world class highliners from around the world to help rig the new world record for the world's longest highline at 4km (2.5mi) long across the desert of Utah near Moab.

The project took 5 days culminating in @da_logster successfully crossing the line into the night under the full moon. Originally I was only supposed to come and document the project but quickly I became a member of the rigging team and my hands were on webbing just as much as on my camera.

I had the opportunity to write and help curate this story for @utahlifemag in the Aug/Sept print issue. Told through my own experience of the project and filled with unique characters and adventure.

Thanks to @da_logster for leading this project and for everyone on the team that made this project a reality, (see tags on each page). It was also my privilege to meet and spend time with the legendary Andy Lewis, who sadly passed away earlier this year, but who had helped create everything this sport is today.

Beyond grateful for the opportunity to be a part of the team and proud to finally put this story to page for readers to enjoy.

I was finally able to 𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗽 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗼𝗻 𝗮 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗮𝗽 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗲 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁 and not only that, I was able to “Send” a big line again🙏(a clean walk with no falls). Which definitely wasn’t on my bingo card by any means, given my recent health matters
•
This line is something very special because it’s the 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐚 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐠𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐡 𝐑𝐢𝐦 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐍𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐡 𝐑𝐢𝐦 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐨𝐲𝐚𝐥 𝐆𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐂𝐚ñ𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐢𝐭𝐲, 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐨. This beauty is 400 meters in length and stands close to 335 meters high. It literally felt like I was walking across the Grand Canyon…👀 •
It’s a honor to have had the opportunity to walk this line, and get the FA on my first crossing, as well as to share the send with @da_logster and @proffventure 🫂🩶 •
𝗘𝘅𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗴𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝗳𝗼𝗿 @communityhighlines 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 @da_logster 𝗽𝘂𝘁 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆. I know many people have dreamt of this moment, and it’s a blessing to be a part of it🙏 •
𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗹𝘆 𝗲𝗻𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵, 𝗜 𝗴𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗿𝗲𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗶𝗴𝗵𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗴𝗶𝗴, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗹𝘆, 𝗜 𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗻’𝘁 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗶𝗳 𝗜’𝗱 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲! Given everything that's happened over the past couple of months with my recovery from spinal surgery and going septic (old proxy speedflying accident), I really wasn't sure how I'd feel or how my body would respond once I stepped back on the line •
Feeling incredibly fortunate and grateful that the stars aligned on this project. It all just happened, and somehow it felt natural to be back❤️ •
Truly another reminder to just 𝗞𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗚𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴!! You never know what's waiting around the next corner
•
@royalgorgebridge 🙏❤️
