Mountain of Storms

"Surfing and climbing are both useless sports. You get to be conquistadors of the useless. You climb to the summit and there is nothing there. And you could hike to the top from another direction. How you get there is the important part. It's the same with surfing." - Yvon Chouinard

Mountain of Storms was a film made in 1968 featuring YC, Doug Tompkins, and Dick Dorworth which documents a 6 month odyssey that took them from from California to the Patagonia region of South America. This film was the inspiration for 180 South. Included in this clip are the intro and a little soul surfing from Peru.
