Nyhetsrapporter om alpin klättring

- Start datum
Vi pratade inte så mycket om svårigheter och tekniska problem, mer om hur härligt det var att åter se gröna träd och växter...
Men som jag uppfattade det (skrev in i min dagbok) så var det en variant-start på en annan rysk led som joinade varandra rätt högt upp, svårigheten var runt A2. De hade stora problem med att repen inte klarade påfrestningarna (precis som vi) med många stenslag och vassa kanter. Något namn på leden uppfattade jag inte heller...

Cerro Torre by fair means! This is HUGE

"BIG NEWS: Although Jorge and I unfortunately fluffed this weather window, today we got to watch history being made through a Canon G12 zoom lens at Norwegos: Hayden Kennedy and Jason Kruk made the first fair-means ascent of the SE Ridge of Cerro Torre. Although I'm not 100% sure about the details, I think they took about 13 hours to the summit from a bivy at the shoulder, which is amazingly fast considering the terrain. The speed with which they navigated virgin ground on the upper headwall is certainly testament to Hayden's great skills on rock. Bravo! They might be in the mountains several more days (more good weather coming), but I'm sure we'll hear the details soon!"

Riktigt coolt! Dags för bultkommittén att plocka ner bultarna? ;-)
Förresten, vad är "fair means" i detta sammanhang? Helt utan att använda bultarna, eller bara fritt?

Sans Bolts!
Utan att klippa bultarna pa Compressor route. Gissar att dom gjort det fritt med tanke pa hur fort de klattra turen men jag har inga detaljer. Men detta ar i mitt tycke LIKA stort som nar Messner klattra Everest utan O2.

Kan man veta nåt om hur "stort" det är utan att veta mer om turen och hur den gjordes? Hård trad i alpin miljö klättras ju av många trots allt.
