https://templedavid.org/symons/p44c73hvrvs Cory Richards has had a big few weeks. His film documentary “Cold” received high honors at the 2011 Banff Film Festival, including Grand Prize, Best Film – Climbing, and the Audio Post-Production Scholarship.

https://grannysglasses.com/?p=cfsym7p3 Cory marked his place in history this past winter when he became the first American to summit an 8,000-meter peak in winter. He and his team, consisting of Simone Moro and Denis Urubko, made the first-ever winter summit of Pakistan’s 8035-meter Gasherbrum II. The team survived extreme cold, blizzards, and a Class 4 avalanche during their three-day ascent of the world’s 13th tallest mountain.
https://restoreredspruce.org/2024/05/13/nu2op7h4ba4 I had the honor to meet and bouldering with Cory last month when he was in town for The North Face Speaker Series tour. Rarely have I met a more down to earth, humble guy. We plopped down on rocks at the bouldering ground and talked photography, Bozeman, and film making. It gives an entirely new perspective to the film having spent just a few afternoons with the man.
