In 2013 Nik Berry, Dave Allfrey and Mason Earle hiked into the Wind River Range in Wyoming to explore the free-climbing potential of the area's remote alpine faces. Having forgotten to bring a topo of their objective, they found themselves on an old Mt. Hooker aid route put up by Steve Quinlan. The group were so inspired by the line that they committed themselves to climbing it clean in what would be some of the hardest big-wall free climbing in North America. Unfortunately bad weather forced them to retreat from their 2013 attempt, but undaunted they returned a year later to try again. This is the story of that mission.
