Here is the opening spread to Alpinist Magazine‘s feature story about our first ascent of the Shark’s Fin. We’ve been working with Michael Kennedy and the staff at Alpinist on this story for several months. Cool to get an intimate perspective of the climb through Conrad Anker’s eyes. There are a few things about his history with the mountain I didn’t even know about. It’s always great to share a story with our peers through Alpinist Magazine. No fanfare, no bullshit. This was probably the hardest climb and shoot of my career to date. Hope you can get a copy and enjoy it.

The Sharkâs Fin of Meru (6,310 meters) was one of the most sought-after objectives in high-altitude alpinism, not just for the singular beauty and shape of the peak, but because it continued to thwart talented team after talented team. The proper line directly up the steep rock rib finally fell this October to Conrad Anker, Renan Ozturk and Jimmy Chin, who took 12 days to reach the summit. Read the article.

In April of 2010, Jimmy Chin spent three weeks shooting with North Face athletes Daniel Woods, Yuji Hirayama, Sam Elias and Emily Harrington climbing outside of Antalya, Turkey. The colorful limestone crags of Geyikbayiri made the perfect location to capture Emily Harrington doing what she does best…..sending burly, technical and overhanging sport routes. Two of Jimmy’s images of Emily are currently highlighted in the Spring 2011 The North Face national ad campaign.
