First Ascent, Mazeno Ridge, Nanga Parbat - Sandy Allan, Rick Allen - Piolets d'Or Winner 2013

www.epictv.com
After more than 20 years of shutting down the world's hardest alpinists the Mazeno Ridge of Nanga Parbat (8125m) has developed a reputation as 'the last great problem in the Himalayas.' Sandy Allan and Rick Allen found the solution when they completed the route in an 18-day push where their partners bailed, they ran out of food and fuel, their sat phone died and they barely made it back to Base Camp. Full-on, old-school, on-the-edge hardman alpinism. Respect.

Amazing! 13kms at high altitude!

Its was from carhy o'dowd view an 30 km long unclimbed ridge... imagine a climb above 7000 m.
They climbed with i guess no bottle oxygen and its like boningtons everest hard way...
Nanga parbats hard way up.
Respect you did this climb... if my fear to been high would be no strong... i would do climbing anyway.

Mariano Galván y Alberto Zerain seguro lograban realizar la ruta mazeno, de no ser por la maldita avalancha que los sorprendió

Nasty frostbite burn on nose.

Fantastic achievement but Cathy O’Dowd makes me a bit angry. Leaving people to die is not what mountaineering should be about.
