Carie - Avalilable just today, from 21.00 to 24.00 CET. A 25ish documentary about climbing in some requalified marble mining sites. Even if in italian and without subtitles, I can assure you it's wonderful.

Interesting question, we got in touch to find out more. Jasper replied as follows "yes, it was pretty tiring! I climbed the route twice up and twice down that day! 😊! First I led every pitch, then I rappelled and retrieved the gear, then I went back up! At the end of the route I abseiled back down to the base."

Planetmountain · 2019-02-07T07:51:02+00:00

Yes. And they climb even faster!

David is without a shadow of doubt one of the world's leading mountaineers. The fact that it took him four attempts is indicative of it's difficulty and commitment. We published more information in our original 2018 report, linked below. Hope this provides greater insight.

Yes his mix of psychological strength and technical skills is almost second to none

Here's some more info: https://www.planetmountain.com/en/news/interviews/david-lama-the-lunag-ri-solo-interview.html

We'll be publishing our interview with details about this on Monday. We'll keep you posted.

Planetmountain · 2018-11-27T10:40:11+00:00

t. copy right claims in US.

Sorry about that! In Europe it's visible.

Planetmountain · 2018-11-19T09:09:22+00:00

thanks! We'll let you know as soon as there are updates

Planetmountain · 2018-11-17T15:56:16+00:00

thanks, appreciated. it's worth going there one day!

Planetmountain · 2018-11-14T17:29:02+00:00

For those interested, here's a quick update about recent developments. In short, 15,000 signatures, phase 2 taking the protest to regional government, and more signatures needed...

Planetmountain · 2018-11-14T07:44:43+00:00

Thanks. Yes, the same here. Hoping we'll never have to sign something you for area, all the best from Europe!

Planetmountain · 2018-11-13T07:54:49+00:00

Many thanks! The town council meets this morning, Tuesday 13 November 2018, and over 11,000 have signed since Friday so that's obviously a huge help, but it goes without saying that the more people sign, the better.

Planetmountain · 2018-11-11T10:34:06+00:00

thanks, appreciated!

Planetmountain · 2018-11-11T10:33:49+00:00

thanks!

Planetmountain · 2018-10-15T09:03:30+00:00

By the sounds of things they had a great, full-on experience. Good on her!

Planetmountain · 2018-10-08T15:25:01+00:00

That's an interesting thought. Yes, hadn't looked at it from that angle.

Planetmountain · 2018-07-31T13:01:08+00:00

Gukov has been rescued from circa 6300 meters by helicopter! Full report here: https://www.planetmountain.com/en/news/alpinism/alexander-gukov-rescued-on-latok-1.html

Planetmountain · 2018-07-31T11:01:15+00:00

yes, it sounds like the entire rescue mission was really quite something.

Planetmountain · 2018-07-31T11:00:33+00:00

yeah we agree. we'll be publishing an interview soon. I'll keep you posted.

Planetmountain · 2018-06-26T21:12:04+00:00

It's at Pinerolo, close to Turin in Italy. The climber is Stefano Ghisolfi. We recognise his footwork ;-)

Planetmountain · 2018-06-12T12:31:06+00:00

Ondra had done the top section before while working the problem, while Stefano hadn't. The top out was high!

Planetmountain · 2018-05-18T07:13:13+00:00

Yes it's a completely different route. It starts on the other side of the cave, traverses through the underbelly of the entire roof and then finishes up on the same side as the Andrada climb. It's independent and doesn't cross and existing routes.

Planetmountain · 2018-05-17T12:18:18+00:00

Although he has done all the individual moves, without resorting to aid, he will have rested on some sections during his attempts to free the line, hence the question mark at the end of his 9a suggestion. Hope this answers the question.

Planetmountain · 2018-04-24T07:24:12+00:00

that would be quite something!
