This is short tribute to Mount Terror that I thought up not long after flying over the Cascades on January 3rd, 2005.  It features teaser footage from the air.  Music is "St. Michael Archangel" from Respighi's "Church Windows".  Guest appearance from Matthew Reiss.

On April 17th, Michael Stanton, Carlos Pessoa, and I went to Vantage for a day of crack climbing.  Here's a short video depicting the highlights of the fun day.

Here's a movie detailing the long-awaited first climb of the season:  the Northeast Buttress of Colchuck Peak.  Enjoy the alpine climbing set against techno vibrations of the "Run, Lola, Run" soundtrack.

Prepare for the rugged alpine adventure that is the Torment Forbidden Traverse.  This one minute thirty second trailer was done in the style of "Terror Dreams" (see above).  Music is the overture to The Flying Dutchman by Wagner.  Narration by Matthew Reiss.

One of the most stunning peaks in the North Cascades is Mount Slesse.  In August of 2005, Aidan, Michael, and I climbed the classic Northeast Buttress route, one that upon viewing inspires both fear and respect.  Enjoy this teaser trailer to the Mount Slesse movie.  Music is Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique.

This movie depicts the highlights of the creation of FT's 2005 CD, Relic.  With 10 songs on the CD, each song is depicted in the movie with history and anecdotes from FT.  Guest appearances:  Eldon Jones and Dave Dault.  Photography:  Kris Stanton

In July of 2005, Michael Stanton, Robert Meshew, and I ventured into the wild environs of the Chilliwack region of the North Cascades for a climb of the classic Northeast Buttress of Mount Redoubt.  Enjoy classic American music as well as a couple of hits from outside the country.

Aidan Haley, Robert Meshew, and I, brothers of true metal, climbed the classic Torment-Forbidden Traverse in July.  This short movie captures the sensational climbing, exposure, and commitment that the route provides.  Manowar and Therion supply the metal.

The single most amazing climb of the year, Mount Slesse is not to be missed in your climbing career or on the screen.  We tried to do it right in this film and we hope you enjoy.  Music is by us boyz.

In his native tongue, the Snowking is known as "Ambvi-dor-olath", meaning "Defender of the Great White Land".  This film depicts three heroes who brave the realm of the Snowking.  Music by Richard Wagner.

Sperry Mountain was a lesson in snow frustration.  Actually, looking back, it wasn't that bad, but I recall being irritated to the point of loud curses on the way down.  I figured I was at least due that lack of dignity when I fell into the 80th or so hole.
