Its going to come all the way down to here?
I'm running away.
It's hard work this Alpinism.
Or Karakoranism?
Masochism!
Such a beautiful climbing, here!
And we enjoy it so much!
This is the 150 time we do this.
Hm, that was elegant!
Ridges and ridges...
Ugh... At least there are nice views!
I guess, I have never been so tired.
Tomorrow, the rock band is waiting for us.
Maybe it'll be a punk band...
Antishow Edelrid...
This boots are at least 5 kg.
We would need seven miles boots
rather then seven-kilo boots...
The wisdom of the day
After three days
We keep climbing somewhere
and I'm waiting for some platform for our tent...
..and there is always just a big shit...
Come on! Dig!
We need a place to sleep!
Hard work to make a platform for a tent!
But it is a nice one.
It fits exactly!
Its good to be home, eh?
Nice view from a window.
Jirka is already cooking a delicious dinner.
A bit crammed.
But cosy...
We are climbing towards the rock band.
Its still awful hard work.
It's good, isn't it?
Nice surprise today!
Hotel Rakaposhi.
We hope the weather will stay good.
Its getting cloudy.
But there is still a bit of sun.
This is the hardest work of the day.
Well, of course the weather got worse.
There is still some sun down in Hunza.
But here snowing...
Well, we will see.
not sure whether I want to go outside...
I don't think so...
but i'll have to, I guess....
Ondra peeking out of the tent.
Disgusting.
It's too short to the rock.
It's so good when it goes through.
And when it does not crack afterwards.
Not the best ice.
But we'll trust it.
Ondra is going to try it out...
And we are trying to figure out
where we are
How do you enjoy this sugar snow?
Its ondra's favourite!
Maybe we have some more sugar in our bivouac.
This is quite awful.
One enjoys such an alpinism.
Hey, how could we climb this?
I don't understand it either.
Instead of siting with Ibrahim
and drinking Hunza water
and chewing tabaco
i'm so looking forward to get back
I'll be chewing like crazy when we get back
climb to a belay
It's great to abseil a bit diagonally
no, this is an abseil under 30 degree angle
this is not possible
I don't like it any more
such a way down
oh well
There is something that looks like a sedle
and nothing there
nothing, no seddles on this ridge
I'm not sure whether it is easier to climb up
or down
After how many days we are leaving the ridge?
it feels like after 15...
five?, six?
super safe abseil on an anchor we found
An historical event - Jira is leaving the ridge.
We will have to hurry a bit here.
because
The seracs are waiting for us.
I hope it will wait..
until we run under it
Any comments to the route?
perfect!
Super.
A long route.
With nice veiws.
90% made of sugar snow.
Taday, they announced 3cm of snow.
Which means 20.
if not, we will be angry
turn back our home!
bloody hell
That's interesting what is happening here.
it could start blowing from the other side
tu turn us back
But there is a crevasse on the other side!
hmm that's true
That would be worse.
What about our BC?
I hope it's not blown away.
that would be a shame
the main thing is that the food is not blown away
Milk tea?
Morning run.
I though thats it...
have you seen that?
how big it was?
Truly nice ending!
A week ago we were just walking here.
here we are drying things
