Push the Lines - Three friends. One winter line. Years in the making.

A documentary record of a winter mixed free ascent on the Diamond of Long's Peak in Colorado. Over several seasons Jesse Huey, Matt Segal and Quentin Roberts return to a single line on the Diamond, working straps, ice tools and rock moves in alpine winter conditions until they finally free the route. The film is shot and edited by Jon Glassberg and follows the team through approach storms, bivies and the particular grind of winter big-wall mixed climbing. The film matters for climbers interested in commitment-how mixed techniques, route-finding on a high-altitude face and team dynamics combine when a single objective takes years of attempts. It documents the logistics of winter action on the Diamond, the moments of physical collapse (the film includes the team’s repeated "screaming barfies"), and incremental progress on a single winter line. The specific line is presented as a mixed free ascent of a route on the Diamond (Long's Peak, Colorado); the film does not publish a technical grade for the line.
