Build My Own FeedBD athlete Josh Wharton enchains three 5.12a multi-pitch alpine rock climbs in Colorado's Rocky Mountain National Park
Black Diamond athlete Josh Wharton is always psyched for a mini-mission, and such was the case when he wrangled photographer John Dickey to come along on a link-up of three multi-pitch 5.12as on three separate formations (The Diamond of Longs Peak, Spearhead and Arrowhead) in Colorado's Rocky Mountain National Park. Here's the smash-and-grab video Dickey edited together of the duo's high-mileage day in the high country.

Fabulous effort guys! Covington, Stanton, Petrillo and an old dude braved Spearhead way back when the rock was still soft and there wasn't 5.12, except for John Gill. The elevation makes it even more difficult. I assume you descended Longs off the back side, so the approach was lengthy.
Keep pushing on!
