Frábær grein eftir Twark Might sem ég mæli með að allir lesi og lifi eftir

Andy Kirkpatrick skrifar góða grein um klifur og ferðalög á Suðurskautinu. Bara svona ef einhver er að skipuleggja útilega þarna suðurfrá…
Andy á frábæra spretti
“The difference between a pro (well lets just call them ‘a Norwegian’) and the classic British hard-man, with his arse hanging out, frostbitten fingers and black nose, is they just have their shit together. They have tested every bit of kit and nothing is new to them. “
Marianne að gera góða hluti
Colin Haley er búinn að vera í miklu stuði í Patagóníu undanfarið. Tóku Torres traversuna á innan við 21 tíma.
Mjög áhugaverðar hugmyndir um fjáraflanir frá Julian Cook
Simone Moro og félagar kláruðu loksins vetraruppferð á Nanga Parbat, eftir 31 tilraun ýmissa hópa frá vetrinum 88-89. Þá er ekkert 8 þúsund metra fjall eftir að vetrarlagi nema K2.
Eru Robbi og Siggi að gera eitthvað sérstakt næsta vetur?

Skemmtileg grein um þróun ísklifurs. Er ekki kominn tími á að láta Valda eða einhverja mega sportklifurrottuna fá ísaxir og klára aðra uppferð áður en einhver túristinn tekur þetta?
“Helgi and I rated Amphibian M9, as it was a lot harder than Octupussy, M8. It was the first consensus M9 in the world. The next winter I climbed a magic route on half spray ice in Iceland, Brennivin, which I rated 9+, as it was a lot harder. I returned to Colorado after Iceland, and I climbed Reptile, which followed the edge of huge horizontal break across some of Vail’s steepest terrain to join the Fang. I called that M9 too. I come from a tradition where you rate a route with the lowest grade you can say with a straight face, not the modern “Instagrade” of the highest grade you can say with a straight face. Brennivin was the first M11 in the world, although I rated it 9+, because it couldn’t be much harder, could it?”
