    Alex Honnold made it savely to the top of Taipei 101 tower in 1:31h.The difficulty grading is estimated to be around 5.11c (6c/6c+), which is a medium technical difficulty for experienced climbers, but still hard when you do it for 1,5h on a very exposed building.via @gripped https://gripped.com/profiles/alex-honnold-free-solos-taipei-101/Edit: fixed french grading to 6c.#climbing

    A series of quick tips on best practices. Most have links to my detailed articles if you want to learn more. This post covers: anchor hooks, extending a quickdraw, using a rebelay to protect a fixed rope, “alpine equalization” with cams, cautions on block leading, “casting” your rappel rope, and how anchor hardware can twist your rope. (Last 3 tips are for Premium Members.) https://www.alpinesavvy.com/blog/do-this-not-that-part-1

    C is for climbing… but also for Champion. During the 2009 fall Himalaya climbing season, I got an incredible invitation to join a climbing team for an attempt on Pumori, sponsored by Champion Hanesbrands. (The game of gossip telephone in the Khumbu region that season was about the underwear model climbing Pumori — I was neither an underwear model, nor did I climb Pumori. The route was far more technical than my skills appropriate for, and altitude sickness kept me no higher than this — the summit of Kala Patthar. But my word what a trip. I’m sure other pics from that trip will show up here as the alphabet goes on. I wish I still had my old glory days climbing pictures. I was so young, so fit, so strong. So scared. So so scared. I’ve learned so much about emotional regulation and fear and stress and performance … I can’t believe I did as much as I did as scared as I did in those climbing days. #meAtoZ #climbing #travel #adventure #nepal #himalaya

    Our reviewer says La Sportiva has (finally) nailed their No Edge shoe tech with the Mandala. He quickly added the new-school weapons to his steep sport climbing quiver. https://www.climbing.com/gear/la-sportiva-mandala-review/
