Respect

Here are a couple of things that I've been near to this season that have caught my attention.

Carlos Buhler and Tato Esquirol de Arteaga have been working their way through Canada's finest mixed routes as too has Erik Schnack.  Carlos gave us some very useful beta while we were in Canmore and I hope is suitably stoked after this seasons climbing, sorry I couldn't climb Musashi to order Crista!!

Markus Stoffer and Bernd Rathmayr's 600+m route Scharf Mit Alles. Markus showed me this line when we climbed in the Gasterntal Valley and it looked unfeasibly big!! So good effort over several seasons to get this one ticked.

Hee Yong Park at the 2010 Saas Fee UIAA Ice Climbing World Cup finals. He was unlucky to come third. Slightly poor video footage but watch out for the moves across the horizontal ice. A real demonstration of how great ice climbing competitions can be.




Busteni looking very good with the new structure.
