Climbing in Taghia Marrocco in the spring of 2024 - La Rivieres Pourpres
Climbing amazing big walls and steep lines in Taghia Marrocco in the spring of 2024 - The amazing hard classic "La Rivieres Pourpres" (500m 7b+) being one of them, spending two days on the wall in a portaledge. (Not Necessary is you're strong enough to do so much hard free-climbing in 1 day)
(A French hip-hop artist used in the video prevented the video from being streamed so I had to replace one of the songs. Original was better but this will do...)

Wilderness in Jotunheimen National Park Norway during winter. Great friends, great views en great times! Anyoing life in between melting snow for food and water, sleeping in probably beyond the -25 c barrier and stamping through knee deep snow or breaking snow on top of a 10km long lake. Good times!

    since the old man of hoy first live broadcast it looks like its lost the top portion of the stack in some storm ? were it once taller? maybe its just been reshaped in 60 years.

      it is called Helvettestinden in the southern Lofoten. The grade of the route is 6b or 6c I think.

      @geertgoemans3875 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Dear Mr. Howard, your guidebook was amazing, you are actually the reason I went to Wadi Rum (I think it must have been around 1997), after seeing a BBC documentary about you (and your wife?) climbing here. Thank you!

    • @tonyhoward2779
      @tonyhoward2779 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Geert Goemans thanks for that. Great to see Rum rock being enjoyed by so many after our discovery in 1984, Tony and Di

    • @yomchadash
      @yomchadash 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's a great guidebook though leaves some room for imagination and navigation.

    • @tonyhoward2779
      @tonyhoward2779 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      which is exactly how it was written, not to rob the climber of a sense of exploration, which is part of the joy of climbing in Rum.

    • @tonyhoward2779
      @tonyhoward2779 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      By the way, before doing any 'modern' routes up Jebel Rum East Face I recommend climbing and descending Hammad's Route first, as that's the way down for many East Face routes.

    Very nice! Good to see they finally have bolts at belay stations :) We also got stranded at the top and had to spend a freezing cold night up there, but the coloring of the rock at sunrise made it all worth it!

    • @tonyhoward2779
      @tonyhoward2779 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Why do you need bolts? Respect Rum Rock, keep it clean, keep the 'wild' in wilderness.

  • @amberkonstant6390
    @amberkonstant6390 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Awesome video. I wonder if you can give any advice on the average cost of a trip like this? A friend and I are wanting to go December/January.

    • @mickersd
      @mickersd 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Life in Jordan is not cheap... but since there is not much to spend money on, its still cheap. Groceries are about the same as in Western Europe. Some things are cheaper. Alcohol is rare and expensive. Taxi from Amman to Wadi Rum is 100 Dinar. Dessert taxi to distant climbs (not many) is about 25 Dinar p.p. Accomodation is very basic and costs about 5 Dinar p.p.p.n. Have fun and be safe!

    • @tonyhoward2779
      @tonyhoward2779 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      if you buy local food, bread, veg etc it's cheap. Bus from Amman to Aqaba about 7JD and bus from Aqaba to Rum only about 3JD. Camp at Rum or stay with local Rum Bedouin in the village or in their camps. See www.nomadstravel.co.uk/countries/jordan-wadi-rum/wadi-rum-guides/
