Todd Skinner Passes in Yosemite

Sad days in the international climbing community. The passing of another legend just a couple days ago. Todd Skinner opened the door to freeing big walls as the first to free El Cap. His passions for freeing the tallest faces he could find took him across the world. From Cirque of the Unclimbable to the first free accent of the great Trango Tower in Pakistan, he was prominently at the forefront of the Hard-and-free approach to climbing.

Todd, may your next life be full of unclimbed granite peaks and undiscovered mountain ranges.
Rest in peace man.
