Pete Whittaker Instagram – Sørveggen (South Wall) of Gjertvasstind
With ‘condensed weekend warriors’ @mariaugustahs and @salvesenfjellsport
nice to get back in the hills and on some technical mountainous terrain/cracks after so much plastic pulling recently.
2nd free ascent? after @lmsolber and @sveslegard
1. Notice the ice splitter on the left Øyvind demonstrates crimping cray
2. Setting off on crux
3. Top of crux pitches (was intending to link 2 together, ended up linking 3 by accident 😅)
4. Mari following second to last pitch
5 & 6. Actually the approach even though it looks like the decent…
7. Ended up being a long day. Estimated time back home > Sunday at 11pm. Actual time home > Monday 9pm 😂
A very nice route and trip, thanks Mari and Øyvind
