The Needle: Episode 24

Short-Rope Stiffler and the Exiled_Michigander welcome Josh Collman to the podcast to talk about his near-death and life-changing fall from Crestone Needle in August 2017.  We got to hear all about the table-sized ledge that he landed on and the story of his rescue from the 14er on a Blackhawk Helicopter.  We also learned how he transformed his mind set from getting his summit-fever-fix to really just enjoying the ride. Hear all about Josh’s thankfulness and admiration for his climbing partner and the SAR team that saved his life.   Josh’s book “The Needle; Finding Heroes” came out in May 2020.  You can find it here: https://www.amazon.com/Needle-Josh-Collman/dp/B088T2ZZ9M/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=the+needle+true+heroes&qid=1592933063&sr=8-2
