The silent climber is a documentary about bouldering that takes place in Pueblo. It was directed by Pat Ament in 1976. It features John Gill and Jim Holloway.

This is a gorgeous ode about rock climbing and time passing, with John Gill, the spiritual genius, at its center. Remarkable voices emerge to paint the picture of the great master boulderer, John Gill. Individuals who have been part of it all, such as Ron Kauk, Rich Goldstone, Tom Higgins, Royal Robbins, John Sherman, and filmmaker Pat Ament himself. New footage uncovered of Gill enriches these images, and his voice too comes alive with detailed analysis of some of his iconic climbs. As deep and touching as the first film, 'The disciples of Gill', this second incarnation continues but stands alone as well, as a work of art itself.

Disciples of Gill is a documentary by Pat Ament dedicated to bouldering and the legacy of John Gill, a major figure in climbing. The film revisits the rise of bouldering in the 1960s and 70s, as well as its influence on modern climbing. It follows the stories of climbers inspired by John Gill and shows how his ideas, technique, and approach shaped an entire generation. It blends interviews and archival footage to trace the evolution of this practice in Pueblo, Flagstaff Mountain, and more broadly within climbing culture.
