Wow a guy opting for the real deal on an 8000 meter peak and off season.
I can only lift my hat and send my best wishes! And he cant be more spot
on in his view of the current state of affairs in the 8000 meter game.
Whatever happened to the road being more important than the goal,
Alberto asks: “People fix far too much rope on most
8000ers,” Zerain stated in a press release. “It's beyond
securing their own line on diffi ...

Its time to go back to Himalaya and have a go at the infamous North
Ridge of Latok. We have tried to find out how the Giri-Giri boys have
been ...
In the next two weeks we will nail dow the final details of our Latok
Expedtion and ship out our gear and some goodies. Its still snowy at
Baltoro and Hispar and given that we think a low snow year or low snow
conditions is key to get a fair shoot at the North Ridge we will opt for
a late departure and climb in to mid October. Hopefully we will be
trading some lower temps for better snow conditions and cold but stable
weather. Only guessing and h ...
Colin Haley and Norwegian Bjorn-Eivind Artun climbed up and over the

To day I had as close of a call one can have and still get back home
alive. I was sport climbing with friends at a super nice cliff up a via
ferata trail to a super cool cliff. Its an "up in the air" and
exposed place where you think twice when moving around. After warming up
on 6b+ and 6c+ I looked at a nice looking 7a line. I went for a onsight
and at the top I was tired and with out any quick draws left (I usually
use one or two quic ...
Having only ambition one is left to spraying away... Well what's new we
know you or I know me...
It's mid season sport climbing and the shape is still not in sight. I
still suffer from the finger injury I got last fall. To day was all time
HIGH in terms of having a shitty day. I screwed up on the warm up and
never got in to the send game. I had initial high hopes but I managed to
end the day with out doing any thing at all! Thats a all time low this
year. I guess thats a way to slowly get in shape. I don't know what to
do but I guess all thi ...

Annapurna has historically been conservative when granting climbers
access to its summit. Its a notorious hard cookie to crack and for many
of the aspiring collectors of the big 14 Annapurna has been left to the
bitter end of the game. Annpurna is a special mountain as it sees little
of the sad 8000 meter tourism. Its also unique among the 8000 meter
peaks as some of the finest alpine style achievements has taken place on
its South Face. Sadly 20 ...
