Reel Rock 20 goes from V15 boulders to Patagonia’s frozen peaks

UC Santa Barbara’s Department of Recreation brought the Reel Rock 20 Film Tour to Isla Vista Theater on Oct. 28, putting on a special event for the rock climbers in the I.V. community. The 20th installment of the annual Reel Rock Film Tour brings four remarkable climbing stories to the big screen, spanning everything from cutting-edge bouldering and sport climbing to adaptive climbing and high-stakes alpine expeditions.
