Returning from Orkney

On Rats Stole my Toothbrush E5/6, Mucklehouse Wall I wrote this on the way home from our trip to Orkney, having had a great time. The final days were mostly spent gathering some really cool footage for our film about the Longhope route which we’ll prepare for the autumn. Ed Drummond revisiting St John’s Head.

5/2 Expedition, Larry Holmgren

Image from Google Larry Holmgren just called in about an hour ago. (1:30 PM) from Denali Pass. They are on their way to the summit/cumbre/acme/zenith/pinnacle/tip top.

There are some low level clouds but that's about it. If I had to guess I'd say they are about an hour from the Football field.

New Schedule For Everest Preparation

Image from Google So, after getting back from Scotland a week ago, I've been pretty busy. Catching up on uni work in particular, headed up by the infamous dissertation, and designing a presentation on 'strength training: hypertrophy or hyperplasia' for anyone remotely interested. Then there’s the matter of getting the 6 week study on beta alanine and bicarb supplementation at altitude out of the way. But aside from the enthralling 3rd year at university, I've had some hard thinking to do regarding my schedule of ...


Valle Cochamo Chile, first free ascent of Cerro Capicua

Image from Google Words by Arc'teryx Athlete Jvan Tresch Tom Holzhauser, Dominik Angehrn my brother Michi and I arrived in Valle Cochamo beginning of January 2009 having two month of climbing. We arrived without plans, only an article from the web and a few photos in our minds. After checking the area we decided that Cerro Capicua would be the wall to go for, because there are only two routes on this wall - and both aid A4. With a machete and lots of big wall gear we started fighting our way through the Chilean rain forest.
