Kelly Halpin is an accomplished mountain athlete, artist and author. We first spoke with her one year ago on Episode 79, and she returned along with Brody Leven for Episode 101. This time Thurk helps guide the conversation about her recent traverse of the Wind River High Route — 100 miles, 30,000 feet of elevation gain — in 59hrs 37min, setting the fastest known time for a solo unsupported crossing. She grew up in Jackson, Wyoming so the mountains are in her blood, and graduated from the Art Center College of Design with a BFA in film, which shows in her art and photography and how she sees the world around her. This conversation is gold.
