Hello,
thank you very much for you kind comment. I also have a great admiration for him, not only due to his climbs. With regard to his climbs in Cordillera Blanca, during one of my expeditions i saw the route Terray relized on the Chacraraju iced face...it's really impressive!
With my best regards.

It is great to see writers like you and Eric Vola putting these important pieces of history on SP. I have read (& re-read) Maurice Herzog's book many times - and as said above, I also have other books from the 60's in which Terray featured - and he would also have been one of the heroes of my youth.
Thanks for sharing this.
Best wishes, Mark
