Ethan Moref was climbing directly for fourteen hours before the first decline of the day. He slipped from roundateable traverse (5.12a/b), 23 pitches have L Capiton Pitch Free rider (Vi 5.13a; 29 pitch) with all the crux of the route below its belt. It was (type) in the bag if he could get through this last bit 5.12. He tickled some foothills, rehearsed his sequence in his head once, and landed the hanging belle. His friends, Xavier Larivier, were waiting for him. “He can’t really catch anymore anymore,” Larivier said. Peacock was not sure if he could close it. Until this point was the work of the larvier to go fast and maintain speed, but now he reminded the 20 -year -old peacock to slow down. “We hadn’t really rested since the beginning, so I just encouraged him to sit in his exploitation, drink some water and take some rest.” Peacock, tired, laid in the lap of the larvier, and slept. He woke up after 15 minutes and removed the pitch. Called the peacock Free riderFive remaining pitch “Battle of my fucking life.”

Four years ago, MORF was a junior at High School in Samraland, British Columbia. Over the weekend, she and her friends used to get a ride from parents (and then driving themselves) in a world-class collection of nearby Skaha Bluffs, technical Ganis. QuickDraws, armed with a rope, an ATC, youtube and a set of high -speed data, they will learn how to climb. Morf laughed heartily on the phone, “I remember that I was doing my first lead, going to the anchor, being straight-turbo-gripped-and watching a YouTube video on my phone was watching how to clean a sport route.” Arlo Cast went to the high school with Morf, although he did not become friends until they ran into the climbing gym, and then went to Skaha with YouTube as their guide. “Ethan YouTube ‘how to climb sports” and then the next day he will teach me what he learned, “the cast confirmed, shaking his head. They climbed as the best 5.10 in the park. MORF also called its first project, 5.11C sport route Rock soft“This really changed my perspective on things,” Morf recalled, “like,” Oh, you can just work hard if you try them. “

The peacock was in love with the climb, but he still had another year high school. “It was like a classic,” Morf recalled, “like, this little boy climbed and climbed that his entire personality became.” He spent his senior year in moonboarding and climbing films, immersing himself in classics: Dodo’s happiness, rampage, first climbFor most Canadian climbers, all roads eventually lead to squamish. Peacock was no exception. He saw that Dider Barthod was trying Cobra crack (5.14b) First climb And he knew where he was going to spend in summer. Just after graduation, Morph created squamish in a black Ford Econoline with his father. He was 17 years old.

Between the thick cedar and the Douglas firings, the Stavamus is a campground in the southern toe of the chief. Because paying campers need to park their car before parking their car, which is a low-delicate gravel parking before pitching your tent under a delightful coastal rainforest. And because the climbers, well, are climbers, they finalize for months in that gravel parking, sometimes pay their campground fees to try to close the heat. Lucky climbers get a little real camp, but eventually the Rangers will evict you after a few weeks. If all climbing roads in Canada lead to squamish, many of them spit you in gravel. It is astonishing. This is dust. The van is packed like a sardin. Friends, the glow of summer, out, professionals; They are all in gravel. This is where I was living when Morf rocked a black van with his father.

The gravel is a carousel of lots of characters, and that heat was no different. One of the characters was the “roof desire”. Larivier (no connection with Xavier) who was working as a park operator and a black Honda was living out of CRV, in which he preferred to cook with a prisoner roof. “He was this small child with pimples, everything and everything was considered,” would be remembered. “He came as this super-new-to-the-sport person who wanted to know where all the best 5.9 and 5.10as were.” Morf was in Squamish for a month on that first visit. “Everyone took me under their wing. It was great,” said Morf. By all accounts it seemed like a classic, formal summer. Peacock learned how to climb trade (mostly than people in gravel, and less than youtube), immediately and harmlessly ornate (but who is not among us?), And made a lot of friends. Imaginary. At the end of all this, he went to Bugabos and incredibly climbed on the tearing Sunlight ,

Three years later – yes, only three years, that was back in the first summer in 2022 – Morf Squamish is a head in the community. In the last few summer, he worked as a park operator, recruited in gravel by Will and his boss Connor Range, another climber who climbed, if you do, the corporate ladder of the campground. In turn, Morf recruited his old friend from Samarland. “Ethan was perfect to work in the campground,” Will Beimrated. “Everyone loved him. It was good to show him – ways to reduce as much as possible. He raised it very fast, he was really good in fucking all around.” In fact, when they were not for the park’s bathrooms and waste, and they were treating golf carts like a rally car, And He used to brush all his friends’s boulder projects and get his lap Bread In, they were hanging out. Morf can be a listless employee, but he is a very intentional human. I remember that it seemed that he was invested every time in whatever he was doing, I used to hold him with him in gravel. For this profile I spoke with many people, expressed a similar feeling – that Moref has such a strong community that is not around him, but because he has come out.

Actually, their climb has developed. Morph was allowed to travel in winter by working in campground in summer. He hit a bump, tore his labram on Yosemite Different reality In the autumn of 2023. Morf re -spent the winter in Samarland, rethinking treatment and passion, ensuring that he is ready for spring. Since then, he is nothing in any way, climbing on his first 5.13c, 5.13D, and 5.14A, has climbed many influential trading climbers including all solo-picch sports climbers, and Indian Creek. Air Sweden (5.13 r). High, in any particular order, it has climbed Free grand (5.13a; 300 m) in squamish, third climb Manchu Woque (5.12d; 485 m) Disturbed sugar puzzle wall, iconic Moonlight (5.12+; 360 m),, El gavilan (5.13a; 270 m) and Los naguelus In the collapse of 2024, peacock freaklemed Free rider For several days, with land, cast. Morph brought a camera with most of these ascendants and published his video on YouTube. There is a shot where the boys are sitting on the L Capiton after their climb. Cast says, “If I could do it again, I will do it again with Ethan, he is the best companion.” Peacock smiles on it, sees the camera, and says “Arlo is the best fucking companion ever.” The shot turns into a sunset. They look like a climbing video that he looked back in Samarland with his father. Victoria Kohanar-Flagon’s photo and video shot at squamish after peacock tainted Love ,

Peacock’s day climbing Free rider It looked as good as him and the cast was hugging at sunset, but perhaps a little more heinous. Things were gone according to the plan till that twenty-third pitch: no falls, thanks for careful preparation, Morph had done for the last few weeks. He made the first attempt to the Krux Karate-Kick. Big-Wall Legend Mark Haden reportedly called him a stud as he provoked Enduro Corneers (5.12+). But now, he was tired. After his nap on Xavier’s lap and later the round table traverse firing, his progress slowed into a crawl. Morf divided the Scooty Burke Offvid into two pitches, a bolt and a fleet on a stance. Sheer would have found him through the pitch; His tired body refused to follow the beta that he had chosen to avoid closing the pitch, so he squeezed there and peeping like a young man with a dream. Nevertheless, however, it was not finished. The second last pitch, a 5.10d roof, took him several attempts. But he did so. He was all free in a day. The fight for his life, as he said.

Javier said, “This was the most inspiring thing in the climb that I have ever seen.” Peacock is the youngest person to free L -cap in a day, extending before his friend Sam Strooh for a few months. Struv told me, “I am proud of him. I think this was the first time Ethan met to tap in some Yosemite Spirit Climbing,” Strooh told me, which I can only assume that your whole body is cramps and you are trying to wake up. Peacock’s views when the youngest? “This is only because Connor Harsan was busy freeing so much nose To do. This is a cool bonus, and a good fact, and I feel incredibly privileged, but someone else [younger] Will come along ,

When I am originally ready to write this story, I felt that it would be about the talent of this next generation and their rapid growth for the rock climbing stardom-how did they do it, and how did they do it so fast? For podcasters, I apologize, because I don’t think there is a strong-oriented plan in Morf’s story. A saying, perhaps, is that many people close to him told me that he is the “most concentrated person” he has ever met. Sometimes, some elements of the cold come with the amount of attention – jetting the relationship in the name of a craft, especially for someone in their early twenty -seventh condition. With Morf, it does not seem. Peacock’s warmth and enthusiasm for the people around them was before their climbing ability and seems to be a permanent part of their lives. Apart from that intention, commitment, and privilege, there is no recipe for rebuilding here, in addition to a long way, and that things are easy – and better – with your friends. You can Youtube a lot of things, and then at some point you just have to do it. Ethan Moref is doing this, and, as Morph and other General Z children say, this is Ku-ku banana,
