#FloorSeats is back for the new year and this episode features two of the most colorful guests thus far! Heath Rowland, owner of Ground Up - is a former coal miner, electrician, and construction worker who was wilder than a coon (his own words) that channeled this energy into becoming an Appalachianer (trad, ice, and rock climber who explores the remote areas of the Appalachian region) in his late 20s. Mike Wilkinson of Wilkinson Visual is a prince among peasants - a cinematographer, climber, photographer, and a gentleman of few words, but who packs a punch with the awe-inspiring images he produces. Like a Megazord ( Power Rangers reference) they linked up to push ice climbing in Kentucky (a state not synonymous with the sport) to the forefront with the documentary, Gone Tomorrow - The story of Kentucky Ice Climbing. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/floorseatsgerryseavojames/support
