VISION VS. REALITY. After our last attempt, I made a bet with that guy who spotted our headlamps on the wall last time in February , that should he see our lights on the wall again, I’d owe him a beer… I lost. BEFORE:10:00 AM. “Traverses are fun! I love traverses! No need to be

VS Heiligkreuzkofel Mittelpfeiler 1.0
I was at a dead end. We were in deep shit. I had majorly underestimated the route, and as always, if you don’t show due respect to the mountain, the mountain kicks your butt.

MY MOTHER’S NIGHTMARE
We abseil down to a tiny ledge metres above the sea level, and it takes a whole lot of ingenuity to pull the rope and only get the last eight metres wet. Thank God it’s waterproof. The sea heaves and swells. My mother is already stressed out. I cannot stop grinning. At least the first
