Big wall climbing: Trango, Pakistan
March 11th, 2009 Posted in Mountain Guides, Mountaineering - Alps, Rock Climbing
Check out this video. 4 surprisingly cool French (no offense there 
) mountain guides hit Trango wall on a brand new route, taking like 20 days to summit the 1600 meter route. Shows you just how far a great deal of humor, laughter, friendship and bad ass climbing will take you take all of them very seriously.
The funny thing is that one of the guys acutally “left” the team above 5500 meters – he jumped off with his wingsuit!
The team named their “project” – or the video at least Azazel, which is a name used for Satan in the Bible. Hmm, wonder what’s up with that…
Thanks to gorida.com for pointing this video out in his blog.

Aweseme video. These guys are pretty active in the French Alps as well, like on Petit Dru one of em did a first ascent after a huge rock fall… in 10 days. Read it on alpinist.com
