2023 • 0h 21m • Adventure, Documentary

Somethings should remain unclimbed

Have you ever pondered what the longest climbing route in the world is? Nestled amongst the lush hillsides of upstate New York sits a bluff of quartzite rock known as the Gunks. Regarded as the birthplace of American climbing, its short yet mighty wall stretches more than 9000ft... horizontally. Established by Dan Rosanstein and Ken Nichols in 1987, the Great Wall of China route is a masterpiece of esoterica which traverses the entire wall, its greatest crux may be jug rash, bugs, and dog walkers. One Dream. Two Dirtbags. 9000ft of Climbing.
