    Hey guys so this was posted on some of my climbing forums but i wanted to share it with your guys! im excited about this! And if you guys want you can add our facebook page to stay updated on the project! we just got the page up and would love the support! thanks! Link- http://www.facebook.com/pages/Raw-Mo...30975156970411

    Hey guys my name is Bradley Green, im 18 and am going to college at Bellevue College in Washington. Where im getting my business and video production degrees. I have just recently had a great idea! I have a love and passion for climbing, but i have seen that not many young kids in my generation have that same passion. I have talked with many young climbers but us young climbers are definitely the minority. Most of my generation is stuck behind the computer and xbox. Now i know i am guilty of that to but i have realized that the world we live in is a lot more interesting then any video game could ever be. And i want to show kids that.

    So i have decided to do a documentary on a 2 week climbing trip i have planned for this summer. Me and a buddy are going to climb- Mt. Shasta, Mt. Whitney and the South Sister in the shortest amount of days possible! I plan on filming the whole trip to show people the beauty of the mountains. But also i want to get interviews from local climbers, big and small name people. I plan on trying to contact people that are world known and people that are weekend hikers, to tell there story and why they do what they do.

    This is months away, but i am looking forward to this! I want to spread my love of this great sport with people. When the time comes i will be asking some of you guys if you could help me (interviews, climbing with us, maybe even funds...etc). I hope you guys can get excited with me on this because this is a big deal!

    Thank you for your time, and happy climbing

    Bradley Green

      I used to climb... before I started grad school. Mostly just some spots up in Kentucky. I haven't been able to get out and find any real rock around the ATL area. :(

              I've been sport & trad climbing for for about 4 years now. This upcoming year I'm going to get real serious about Alpine climbing and start bagging the big boy peaks. This upcoming year I've set some hefty goals for myself. I'm going to climb Mt Sushkan, Mt Adams, Mt hood, and Mt Rainier. Then in October I'm taking a trip to Nepal and I'm doing the hike to Everest base camp. It's going to be my first first guided trip, part of the hike is a side trip to island peak. Its going to be my motivator take on the elusive 7 summits. This is kind of where all my money is going instead of my e30....
