Piolets d'Or 2019 has chosen to honour three innovative ascents: a famous face on an iconic mountain of the central Karakoram; a previously untouched face on a little-known peak of the western Karakoram; an ascent of one of the highest remaining unclimbed summits in Nepal. Perhaps unusually, two of these were bold solo climbs. All three summits were close to or a little above 7,000m - the three

The Piolets d'Or celebrates and awards ascents rather than specifically the climbers that made them, though naturally it is those climbers who are presented with awards. Tragically, both authors of the solo ascents - Hansjörg Auer and David Lama - are no longer with us. However, at the Ladek Mountain Festival,

where the awards will be presented this September, it will be family who accept the accolades on their behalf.

REINHOLD MESSNER INTERVIEW ABOUT NIRMAL PURJA

دسته: اخبار

منتشر شده در سه شنبه, 15 مرداد 1398 21:56

legendary Italian mountaineer Reinhold Messner gave a short interview to the newspaper "La Gazzeta dello Sport" in which he appreciated the incredible project of the Nepalese mountaineer Nirmal Purja, who, as we reported earlier, for 3 months and 3 days he could pass 11 eight thousandths, which today is a real record in mountaineering.
I have never climbed to make a record, although one has been attributed to me. In fact, I just wanted to do some activities that had never been done before, which is really what is defined as a record. I never looked at the stopwatch, nor did I follow the numbers. Not even 14, the number of mountains over 8000 meters. When I finished the collection I was not competing with Jerzy Kukuczka: I just wanted to be free for other adventures, those of the Poles. But I'm curiously following the record of Nirmal Purja in the eight-eight. He climbed the Broad Peak yesterday, two days after being on top of K2.
. I met him when he was at Nanga Parbat. I was surprised by his decision and his safety. He is totally immersed in this game. Even economically: if he had stayed in the gurkhas, a very profitable pension would have been guaranteed and, on the other hand, he had to mortgage his house to try to raise the Catorce eight-eight in just seven months. Now he only has three left and the biggest obstacle he has to overcome is the Chinese permission to climb Shisha Panga and Cho Oyu.
