Last Week's First Ascent

Postby Deleted User » Wed Sep 12, 2012 7:25 pm

Let's try this... an FA gathering thread, FAs performed last week or in the near past, a First Ascent you have heard of, and of course the first ascents you performed yourself.

I'll start with this one :

Image
On Sept 9, 2012, Marko Brdnik and Tadej Golob made the FA of Smrt fašizmu (VI, 350 m) on Veliki Pihavec Northwest (above Bala), in the Julian Alps. The climb leads up the left part of the northwest face, on a wall that had never been visited. Image
Edit : here are more details, photos.
