The latest from the spur of the nanga parbat in the testimony of daniele nardi ⬇️⬇️⬇️
" together with Tom we were at altitude 6200 M, here we left some material to continue the climb hoping the wind won't take it away. Then we started the descent. The others went down to base camp because they didn't feel good after sleeping in c3.⛺
Down to c3, we ate something and started going down. Fatigue and fatigue are being heard, but I am satisfied because we did a great job up to 6200 M, right up to where I had mounted the tent with Elisabeth Revol, during my first attempt to rise at nanga, in 2013 ." 🧗🏻 ♂️

Dutch climber Wilco van Rooijen survived one of the worst climbing disasters in modern memory while leading one of the teams tackling K2 in 2008. He went missing and stuck for three days at the top of K2 in the death zone. In the end and due to severe frost bite, he had to miss all his toes. Earlier,in 1995 a boulder smashed his face and arm on K2.
In a interview with the guardian, when asked, what is the thrill in climbing? "If you are ambitious there is a lot of risk. It's a milestone. You can say your whole life, 'I was there'. When you talk about it, you get this, I don't know how you say it in English, this shivering." He points to the hairs on his arms. "If you are there. Pfffff." He blows on his teeth in awe. "And you are fighting for each other, taking care of each other - to survive this it gives you a soulmate. The rest of your life you can always knock on the door. They will always be there to help you."

It's an ascension of not much difficulty but quite adventurous, with enough rotten rock. Only one of the most vertical highlight has better quality. They climbed 90 % in assembly finding difficulties up to 5 grade

Part III. Ascent to Mojón Rojo.
Despite of the hurricane we continued by the eastern side of the mount. Reaching the summit and spent descent to El Chalten directly, trough Laguna Sucia. It was round trip in 36 hours from "Lo de Trivi Hostal" and back.
It was dark night when we arrived, the stars ✨ were shining as we never seen before in Patagonia.

Part II. Ascent to Mojón Rojo.
We climb up by the second half of the corridor by soft snow and thin ice. Then normal route turns to the right following an easy slabs but the wind has increased incredible so we decided to continue straight on by mixed gulley to reach the saddle.

Alastair McDowell & Daniel Joll welcoming in the new year with an ascent of the North Face of Aiguille Du Jardin, Chamonix. The pair found surprisingly good conditions on the face despite a general lack of ice on the North Faces of the Argentiere basin. They climbed a combo of two existing routes with a few new mixed pitches in the middle (thanks to getting lost in the dark  )

30 years ago - almost to the day - I was on a climbing expedition in Nepal with Icelandic friends. During the climb two of them, Kristinn and Torsteinn disappeared and, despite searches, no trace or clue was found. Then, a couple of weeks ago, an American climber came across their remains. A mountain guide from Iceland who had just returned from Nepal (and therefore acclimatised to altitude) went back to Nepal and brought them down. Tonight they were cremated in Kathmandu. Inevitably the last days have brought many emotions to the surface for all who knew and loved these wonderful guys, but it has also brought people together and I pray will help with greater closure and, in time, peace.
