Barnegat Meeting Room

Looking Up follows Eitan Armon, facing blindness, as he trains to climb Yosemite's El Capitan. With limited vision, he proves resilience and determination can overcome any obstacle.

Looking Up tells the inspiring story of Eitan Armon, a young man facing progressive blindness, as he takes on the challenge of climbing Yosemite’s 3,000-foot El Capitan. With only a small portion of his vision remaining due to Retinitis Pigmentosa, Eitan refuses to be defined by his diagnosis and learns to rock climb in pursuit of an extraordinary goal. His journey is a powerful testament to resilience, determination, and focusing on what’s possible.
