Climbing Magazine, March 2010 Review by Julie Ellison

"Many climbing flicks focus solely on the epics--huge dynos, 50-foot whippers, clutch sends--while the ineffable, in-between moments are excised. Happily, Chris Alstrin's film Waypoint Namibia, on granite-dome hunting, avoids this pitfall. As Majka Burhardt says early on, "No one went on this trip to climb. They went to go to Namibia." With stunning visuals, Waypoint follows Burhardt, Kate Rutherford and Peter Doucette in the African wilds--driving 12-plus hours in 100-degree heat, climbing through bird crap (literally), and battling hives inflicted by aggressive flora. The trio manages a masterful FA--Southern Crossing--while exploring the intersection of culture, climbing, and conversation."

"In contrast to a national-park system where people have been taken off the land, every conservation project in Namibia starts first with the native people, said Burhardt: "Conservation in Namibia is not tied to preservation, it's tied to integration." More

"It was the perfect size for a coffin. That is what popped into rock climber Majka Burhardt's mind when she saw the image of a smoothly rounded water hole flash on an overhead screen during the first of 25 lectures she is giving around the country." More

"Now, climbing is Burhardt's profession world, professionally speaking, with her work split into three occupations: climber, writer, and guide. Foundations and gear companies support her climbing excursions, magazines pay her to write about her trips and other stories she encounters, and when she returns home to Colorado, private clients hire her to lead them through challenging climbs in the Rockies."  More.
