Chris Van Leuven

A climber for 20 years, Chris has climbed more Yosemite big walls than he can keep track of. His passions are all-free in-a-day big wall climbing and establishing big FA's. He does it all --  ice/mixed, offwidths, bouldering, slabs, and sport. When he's not on the rocks (or his bicycle), he's authoring guidebooks for Supertopo, penning pros for Alpinist, Climbing Magazine, Elevation Outdoors and more.
