    Neue Staffel DOK - Hoch Hinaus: Das Expeditionsteam GrönlandSechs Abenteurerinnen aus der Schweiz haben ein Ziel: Sie wollen Berge in Ostgrönland zu besteigen, die noch niemand zuvor bestiegen hat. Nach vier Tagen auf hoher See bleibt dem Expeditionsteam nicht viel Zeit, um sich vom Segeln und der Seekrankheit zu erholen. Umgeben von Fjorden, Eis und steilen Wänden suchen sie nach den idealen Kletterrouten.https://www.srf.ch/play/tv/sendung/dok---hoch-hinaus?id=c66487b3-0990-0001-d92c-55501cb0144d#Mountains #Berge #Greenland #Grönland #Climbing #Bergsteigen #Mountaineering #DOKHochHinaus

    Is there any app that lets you use the separate BT earpieces (like AirPods etc) to communicate directly from one to the other?

    Is there any app that lets you use the separate BT earpieces (like AirPods etc) to communicate directly from one to the other?You connect them to one phone, as normal, but then two people have each one in one ear and can talk to each other?I was with a friend to a climbing hall, and even though it was a "quiet" time, it was still hard to talk when one person is far up on the wall and the other was securing you on the floor. Thought this could be a perfect solution.#StealThisIdea #climbing

    It was that familiar feeling you get when you finish a big climb—that immense wash of relief that climbers all know, when you finally touch down from that last rappel, and you are once again planted on solid ground. It’s a bittersweet transition from the transcendental vertical realm to the horizontal plane of the ordinary.…<hr /><p><a href="https://climbingzine.com/guerreras-by-zach-clanton-an-excerpt-from-volume-24/">https://climbingzine.com/guerreras-by-zach-clanton-an-excerpt-from-volume-24/</a>
