Style matters!

Nice self portait and nice style for your ascents. Do more with less is the real game in the days of guided ascents and ''trendy'' summiting.

Re: Style matters!

Thank you. As you said, style matters, the real game is being in the mountains on your own carrying your food and shelter. Summiting when you don't use Huts and guides is very hard but happy work then. I regret we have 2007 now not 1907 or earlier, when summits where not crowded.
