30 Mountaineer and filmmaker, 46, USA. The co-director of the Oscarwinning film Free Solo has climbed (and skied) Everest. Jimmy Chin Chin has organized and led mountaineering and climbing expeditions in China, Nepal, Argentina, Greenland, Pakistan, Borneo, Tanzania and other countries around the world. 52 THE RED BULLETIN
Peak Isolation Mountaineer and filmmaker Jimmy Chin knows plenty about riding out a storm. North Face athlete, photographer and adventure filmmaker Jimmy Chin has helped lead teams to big things, but he knows plenty about isolation. After all, the route up 8,000-meter peaks often involves days on end with just a few people in the confines of a tent. During an April conversation, Chin was holed up with his film partner and wife, Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi, and their two kids in their home near Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Here, in his own words, Chin shares his thoughts on social distancing in small spaces. CHRIS FIGENSHAU, MIKEY SHAEFER TRACY ROSS Surround yourself with good people “There’s so much trust required on high-stakes mountaineering expeditions, so choosing the right people is critical. Generally, I choose people who can not only stay calm in tough situations but who step up and thrive in them.” Pass the time together “What better time than when you’re locked down to play cards, tell jokes and have deep discussions? We’ll talk about books we’re reading (recent favorites: Jon Krakauer’s Missoula and Sebastian Junger’s Tribe), personal dreams and day-to-day logistics. If there’s nothing to talk about, you just stop talking. You get over that quickly.” Move when you’re stuck “When you’re confined for a long time, you have to move your body. Otherwise you’ll stiffen up. There are many exercises you can do in a tent. I do push-ups, sit-ups, planks, Supermans and lots of stretches.” Keep calm and carry snow “Staying positive in a situation you can’t control is a mental game. You don’t want to let fear or anxiety take over, so you assess your situation, think about potential outcomes, game these out and be productive. Proactively taking care of others is also strangely calming. No one wants to go out and get the snow to melt for water. But if you get up, put on all your shit, go out into the storm and come back and make everyone hot drinks, you wind up feeling useful and good.” Don’t lose sight of the long game “Something we talk about is how storms pass. It’s how you weather them that counts. I’ve been traveling pretty much nonstop for the past few years. So having this moment to slow down, spend time with my family and get outside in a place I love—I’m grateful.” THE RED BULLETIN 53
