The World About Us

on BBC Two England

On the Rock Face
Rock climbers call the sun-baked walls of California's Yosemite Valley, vertical desert; vast slabs of rock soar up from the valley floor shimmering in the desert heat. Of all the rock faces El Capitan is the most awe-inspiring. Its summit overhangs the valley floor 3,000 feet below. This award-winning film follows the three days that three climbers spent perilously ascending the rock face. It is tense and exciting.
Film cameraman GLEN DENNY Produced by FRED PADULA
