The Approach: What It Takes to Get a Little Out There

Pro climber Alex Honnold has long known that getting a little out there takes more than nerve. It takes serious preparation, focus, a crew you can count on, and the ability to adapt when the route changes. Making Get a Little Out There with Alex Honnold put those lessons to work in a whole new way. In this keynote, Alex takes us behind the scenes of the five-part Nevada series, sharing what it took to bring it to life, from long approaches and changing weather to unexpected only-in-Nevada encounters. He’ll reflect on what surprised him along the way and what the experience revealed about teamwork, curiosity, and venturing beyond the familiar. He’ll also look at what happened after the credits rolled, when a champion of his sport found himself ready to champion something new: the state he calls home.
