The Lost Valley

"The Lost Valley" is a rock climbing video (13 minutes) published by Arc'teryx on April 22, 2014 with 267K views. Available to watch free on CouchClimbs.

In The Lost Valley, Arc’teryx drops you into the wild edges of Patagonia as a small team heads off the grid toward Argentina’s Turbio Valley, where the approach is as committing as the climbing. With Paul McSorley, Will Stanhope, Marc-André Leclerc, and Matt van Biene chasing a line called La Vuelta de los Condores (5.11 A2), the film follows the question every expedition eventually asks: where does a journey truly begin—and what does it take to see it through? This is worth watching for its mix of raw consequence and quiet resolve: shifting weather, long days, and the kind of decision-making you can’t edit out when the stakes rise with every pitch. Tight, immersive camerawork turns remote stone into something immediate, capturing the tension between ambition and humility that defines big-wall adventure—and reminding you why the unknown still pulls climbers back, again and again.
