- Big, audacious dreams come with real risks. The dreamers are presented with a labyrinth of physical hazards, possible outcomes, hurdles, and dead ends. Often, we are told that success comes down to positive thinking, but maybe there’s a flip side to that coin. Few people have thought about risk more than Will Gadd, pioneer of modern mixed and ice climbing. And he’s got a lot to say.

Man - listening to these guys talk, really makes me want to go climbing outside. Working in an office is great career experience but the outdoorsman lives these guys live does sound like it’s full of adventure.
Really awesome conversation to hear. My g/f and I are going to the Wind River Range to alpine climb 1,200ft to 1,800ft climbs. I’ve tried to prepare for everything possible. It’s really important to evaluate the complexity and your skill level and understand you’re still doing something wild. This is great material!
Always great to hear from the Gadd-Fly! Especially after all these decades since the Seventies in Boulder! 🙏🏾
I wrote in my first book (THE OUTDOOR ATHLETE - in which Will was interviewed) my version;
Prepare for the worst,
Expect the unexpected,
Visualize the best
Would do anything to multi pitch ice with gadd, what a dude
Will, you may be more conservative than you are taking credit for. You stayed on your beginner wing for two seasons where the yahoos would be on un-certed death wings after six months.
Risk entails freedom and passion for what you do and how you do it, regardless of the level of risk.
Every choice in your life is a risk no matter how safe you feel. Everyones personal level of risk is different.
