There is no question that Will Gadd has been known to push the limits when it comes to ice climbing, but in this video he may have gone a step too far. In the clip below we join Gadd as he sets out to climb the challenging Helmcken Falls in British Colombia using nothing but natural gear. Along the way, we also get a look at some prototype gear coming our way from Black Diamond. Fun stuff.
