American Alpine Club's video: Bishop Craggin Classic

Each November, the American Alpine Club and CAMP Technical Adventure Equipment invite you to the world-class climbing mecca of Bishop, California for the annual Eastside climbing party, the Bishop Fall Highball Craggin' Classic! This 3-day climbing festival is a true celebration of climbing and community in the Eastern Sierra. Started over a decade ago by local climbers looking to clean up the Buttermilks and afterwards drink some beers with friends, the Highball has always been a grassroots event by climbers, for climbers. The event has grown to feature films, climbing clinics, slideshows, games, gear, local beer, and good times—all in a massive gathering in the heart of downtown Bishop. And of course, we take pride by giving back through local stewardship projects, which take place in the Volcanic Tablelands and the Buttermilks. This year we are opening the weekend with a special Community Conversation Hour. Saturday night will feature presentations by YOSAR member Jim Reynolds and CAMP athlete Madeline Sorkin. In typical Craggin’ fashion, the weekend will include two nights of parties, service projects to tend to the land we love, and climbing clinics to keep you safe and climbing harder. Not attending a clinic? No problem, because we have free yoga at Flowmotion Yoga and Pilates, oh and there’s good climbing. All over. In the Eastern Sierra. More need not be said.
