In 2011, Ben Blakney sublet his apartment, moved into his car, and embarked on the road trip of a lifetime. Hueco Tanks, Bishop, Joe's Valley, Rifle, Yosemite, Red Rocks, Mt. Charleston, Squamish, Lake Louis and more. Unsurprisingly, Ben returned stronger than ever and went on a rampage on Dover Island with quick send of Horizontal Matter V10, followed by 2 hard linkups: White Trash Matters V10 and Horizontal Transform V10. In 2020, 8 months on the road is more of a fantasy than a dream. Luckily we can enjoy these spectacular climbs close to home. Seb repeated Horizontal Transform and grabbed a nice video. Blakney's linkup looks like the natural line - it's interesting the original line took a strange detour out the crimpy face.
