Henry Russell, los inicios del pirineísmo. parte 01

Henry Russell fue uno de los grandes pirineístas del siglo XIX. Dedicó gran parte de su vida al conocimiento inagotable de las altas montañas que se extienden a ambos lados de la cordillera. Impregnado del espíritu romántico de su tiempo, buscó la plenitud en la inmensidad de los paisajes pirenaicos y escribió después sobre su experiencia pionera en unas cumbres por aquellos días casi vírgenes y aún desconocidas del gran público. Vivió la montaña con la pasión de un enamorado y con el recogimiento franciscano de un místico. En la soledad y la belleza de los espacios agrestes de los Pirineos, persiguió una elevación espiritual que al descubrimiento de lo nuevo añadía un deseo casi panteísta de fundirse con la naturaleza en su estado más puro y genuino. En el esfuerzo de las largas caminatas, supo apreciar con sensibilidad exquisita toda la poesía que atesoran las piedras, las nieves, las aguas y los bosques de las hermosas montañas pirenaicas.

VELOCITY

The Hard Way - Annapurna South Face (1970)

This entertaining film documents the first ascent of the very difficult South Face of Annapurna, a huge Himalayan wall that the right team could achieve the seemingly impossible.
The ascent of the South Face of Annapurna in 1970 was one of those breakthrough ascents - both technically and psychologically. Chris Bonington assembled the cream of British mountaineering and American Tom Frost for the attempt. The documentary is punctuated by wry observation, understatement and cutting humour from a by-gone age when the game of taking huge risks was matched by a determination not to take it too seriously. The summit triumph leads to unexpected tragedy, a common theme in the Himalayas, but never told more poignantly as in the classic film.
Best Climbing Film -- Trento Mountain Film Festival 1971.

Hillary and Tenzing : Climbing to the Roof of the World (1997)

On May 29, 1953, a lanky New Zealander named Edmund Hillary and his climbing partner, Tenzing Norgay, became the first to reach the highest point on earth - the summit of Mount Everest. The few brief minutes these two men spent on top of the world profoundly affected the rest of their lives personally & politically. Actual footage of the climb, sound recordings, letters, diaries, and intimate interviewers are woven together with evocative new sequences to tell this remarkable tale of human achievement and the political chaos that followed.

Featuring : Edmund Hillary, John Hunt, George Lowe, Tenzing Norgay, Charles Wylie
Included: talks with Hillary and Norgay's family, as well as fellow climbers.
Also: expedition footage and excerpts from the diaries of both men

Cervino 1911 (trailer)

Film: Alpinismo

Aconcagua 1954 – 1re dans la Face Sud (V.O. français)

Esta importantísima primera, de repercusión internacional, estuvo en manos de los franceses R.Paragot, G.Poulet, A.Dagory, L. Berardini, P.Lesseur y E.Denis; quienes después de siete duros días de escalada llegan a la cima principal a finales de febrero de 1954. El "Centinela de Piedra" eleva hacia el cielo, por el Sur, (una inmensa muralla de casi 3.000 metros de altura y 7 kilómetros de ancho).

El legendario alpinista francés Lionel Terray visitó la gran pared durante el verano austral 52/53, después de escalar el antaño mítico Fitz Roy. Consideró entonces que el impresionante muro de hielo y roca constituía un colosal problema del alpinismo. Y no se equivoco...

El aspecto de la pared Sur en conjunto es de dificultad, peligrosidad y, en ese momento, casi de inexpugnabilidad. Pero esta muy claro que los alpinistas de todos los tiempos detestan la palabra imposible.

Great Trango - a granite mile high (1999) V.O

En el verano de 1999; Alex Lowe junto con Jared Ogden y Mark Synnott, realizan el primer ascenso de la cara noroeste de la Gran Torre del Trango , en el Karakorum, Pakistán, una de las más grandes paredes del mundo.
Después de dos años de sueños e intrigas, un equipo de los mejores grandes escaladores de pared desciende sobre un remoto rincón del norte de Pakistán, en la Cordillera del Karakorum, con el fin de arrebatar el premio de un primer ascenso. Su objetivo: La pared noroeste de la Gran Torre del Trango. Esta torre de 6.286 metros tiene una joya - una cara noroeste todavía no escalada, subiendo abruptamente del Glaciar Baltoro 6.000 metros más abajo.
El equipo de tres hombres de Alex Lowe, Mark Synnott, y Jared Ogden aprenderá rápidamente que la fuerza y la técnica en la escalada no son suficientes para conquistarla y llegar a la cumbre. Aparte de los peligros objetivos de la escalada, del clima, la caída de rocas, y la mala calidad de la roca-el equipo debió de enfrentarse a peligros físicos y emocionales. Golpear la pared en más de un sentido, este equipo se une en última instancia, contra viento y marea para lograr sus sueños y reclamar el premio de Gran Trango
