Dylan and Balin Miller, born and raised in Anchorage, Alaska, discovered their passion for climbing as young boys after their father introduced them to the sport in Hatcher Pass, Palmer, Alaska. During their teenage years, they spent every free moment planning new climbs, backcountry skiing, and hiking long trails to reach untouched rock faces.

Their adventures have taken them across Colorado, Montana, Wyoming, Alaska, the Sierra Nevada, Canadian Rockies, South America and France. At just 19, Balin chartered a plane into the Alaska Range to summit Mount Huntington. By May 2024, at age 22, he ventured up the West Buttress of Denali. Later that year, in November, Balin achieved the incredible feat of summiting Cerro Torre in Patagonia, widely regarded by experienced climbers as one of the most technically challenging peaks. On his way home from Patagonia Balin flew into Canada before driving home to Spokane. On his way home he spontaneously decided to solo climb Reality Bath on White Pyramid in the Canadian Rockies. Balin was the second climber in 37 years to successfully complete this ice-climb after Mark Twight and Randy Radcliffe. Spring of 2025 he spent 53 days in Denali completing 4 summits. Two summits were first ever historic solo climbs, the French Connection on Mount Hunter and the Slovak Direct of Denali. In October 2025 he soloed Sea of Dreams on El Captain. He has earned world wide recognition. The climbing community refers to Balin as " King of the Alaska Range" Veteran climbers refer to Balin Miller as legendary and one of the most accomplished alpinists of his generation. Since his devastating passing his mother Jeanine Moorman has created a non-profit, The Balin Scott Miller Foundation. the foundation will raise money for grants to help with essential climbing gear for young climbers under 24 years of age.
