First ascent. With Aleš Česen.

When we launched for G3’s west ridge, attempted by Scots in ‘85, we pushed on a door to what we wondered was possible. Shedding expectations, worries and ideas, we simply moved upwards with an inquisitive mind and a silent, crashing body. Sick in the head and stomach, we slowed. Alpinism is such a beautiful trap of what you want and what you need. [1]
