Highlining at Cathedral Peak, Yosemite, California
Walking a slackline can be hard enough. For pioneering rock climber Dean Potter, one of our 2009 Adventurers of the Year, walking a highline, untethered, at 10,000-plus-feet-high on Cathedral Peak in Yosemite, California, is just another day of his truly incredible way of life.
