Petzl RocTrip Argentina 2012 - The official movie

Petzl RocTrip Argentina 2012 – The official movie drops you into the windswept Patagonian pampas of Chubut, where the Piedra Parada monolith and the 5-kilometer La Buitrera Canyon rise out of the desert in dramatic fashion. Filmed during the tenth Petzl RocTrip in November 2012, it follows a week-long gathering of climbers from around the world who came together to celebrate new routes, big walls, and the shared pull of movement on stone. What makes this one worth your 22 minutes is the scale and atmosphere: towering cliffs up to 200 meters, a festival-size crew of 1500+ climbers, and the full range of Patagonia’s moods—dust, heat, cold, and relentless wind. It’s part travel film, part community snapshot, and part pure climbing inspiration, capturing that rare mix of hard-earned lines, expansive landscapes, and the electric energy of a place becoming a major destination in real time.

Lying just to the north, the majestic La Buitrera Canyon was home to the Petzl RocTrip in November 2012. For more than a week, climbers from all over the world came together to share a common passion: climbing. Thanks to the hard work of a team of Argentinean and international route developers, La Buitrera Canyon, 5 km long with towering cliffs up to 200m high, is now one of Argentina's major climbing spots. For the tenth edition of the Petzl RocTrip, more than 1500 people climbed in the wind, dust, heat, and cold, for an unforgettable Patagonian experience!
