A Month In Rocklands with Kyra Condie

Kyra Condie's fourth season in Rocklands, the boulder field scattered through South Africa's Cederberg Mountains, shot and directed by Carlos Mason. She arrives wanting one project worth committing to and instead gets pulled in every direction by the sheer number of options, working through Basic Instinct, The Beaten Path, L'Arch and Distance, with a detour to Cape Town for a competition at Kragsentrale and a deep water solo session on the coast.

This is a trip film that admits what most trip films edit out: she leaves with more projects than sends. The climbing shares space with the dogs at the hen house, a braai with friends, a fish fry by the ocean, wine and board games on rest days. If you have wondered what a full Rocklands season actually looks like from the inside, hours and days rather than highlights, this is the honest version.
