Very Nice

Great shot Losdestroy. I am unfamiliar with the Shield Route. Could you put up a route for it on the Huascaran page. Looks very steep!

Re: Very Nice

Thanks. I will do that as soon as I finish the "Naranjo de Bulnes" page. All the best.

Interesting crampon technique...

... by the dude on the lower right. His calves must be suffering from front-pointing flame-out! ;-)

Re: Interesting crampon technique...

... think of front pointing for 900 metres in hard ice to reach 6.500m. That is "the Shield".

Excellent photo

This really conveys the feeling of this route - and I've splayed my feet just like the person on the right when tired - I know how he feels!

Re: Excellent photo

Thank you. For some reason we feel better when we share the pain, don´t we?

All the best.
