BARBARA ZANGERL BECAME THE THIRD WOMAN IN THE WORLD WHO WAS ABLE TO GO THROUGH THE LEGENDARY ROUTE“THENOSE” 

WITH FREE CLIMBING 

Austrian rock climber Barbara Zangerl and Italian Jacopo Larcher reported that they managed to go the legendary 900-meter route “The Nose” on the most famous rock in the US El Capitan free climbing

Just a few days after Sébastien Berthe ’s climb , Barbara and Jacopo also wrote their names in the climbing history of the BigWall route

Just a few days after Sébastien Berthe ’s climb , Barbara and Jacopo also wrote their names in the climbing history of the BigWall route

Barbara and Jacopo made their first attempt to pass the Nose with free climbing in the fall of 2018, but then they failed, because the rock was wet

It is noteworthy that a couple of Barbara and Jacopo can be considered one of the most experienced in the Yosemite Valley, because earlier they both managed to go through such routes as: El Niño (VI 5.13c A0) in 2015, Zodiac (VI 5.13d) in 2016 and "Magic Mushroom" of difficulty 8b + in 2017
And "PreMuir" (8b) this year.
let's say that Barbara Zangerl became only the third woman in the world who was able to go the “The Nose” route free climbing: after Lynn Hill in 1993 and Beth Rodden in 2005.
Given the general history of free Nose climbing: Barbara and Jacopo became the eighth and ninth climbers in the history of this route, respectively

“Carry Me Back!”

This fall, the SPCC guys (Sagarmatha Pollution Control Committee) launched a  project called “Carry Me Back,” which would improve the situation with garbage in the Khumbu Valley ...

In October, an industrial shredder for plastic and aluminum cans was brought into the Namche Bazar area. The garbage suitable for grinding is demolished there, after which it is packed in small bags weighing 0.5 - 1 kg. A distribution point for these bags was installed near the main stupa of Namche, and all trackers who have already completed their journey can take a little garbage and bring it to Lukla. At the airport, a special place was arranged where everyone dumps their burden.
At the end of the season,  Airplane will transport all the garbage from Lukla to Kathmandu.

THAT'S HOW A GLACIER DIES, SEEN FROM SPACE

On the left side of the photo,  captured by a NASA satellite, you can see how the Okjökull glacier was in 1986, when it had already begun to melt

On the right, the image of the same area captured on August 1, 2019. There is only hielo️ ice left in the crater of the volcano

The glacier was declared dead in 2014

 A century ago it measured 38 square kilometers and was up to 50 meters thick. In 2019 there is less than a square kilometer, in the crater of the volcano, with a thickness of just 14 meters
