Zoé, Flo, Bicha, Hans, Ben et Bione reviennent du Valais Suisse avec une moisson de croix du 3+ au 8A+.
Ces 6 jours de trip se sont réalisés sur les secteurs mythiques de Plex, Fionnay, Branson et Vernayaz.
Hélas, sans topo, nous n'avons pas tous les noms des blocs réalisés, ni forcément les cotations ''officielles''... et ce n'est pas le DVD ''Blocs en valais'' qui nous a aidé vu sa nullité.

"Il s'agit d'une voie rocheuse ouverte en 1968 par Walter Cecchinel et Claude Jager qui fut grimpée piolets aux poings lors de l'hiver 1998 par Benoit Robert et Philippe Batoux.
Une ligne évidente aux longueurs variées et techniques, succession de passages mixte et de dièdres englacés où il faut être délicat.
Vraiment une voie très sympathique pour reprendre contacte avec le mixte en vue de projets plus ambitieux!
J'ai pris tellement de plaisir à grimper cette ligne que j'y suis retourné deux jours plus tard avec Damien." Martial Dumas

Dave Graham - Adventures in Oz (+lista de reproducción)
It's no surprise to me that ancient Aboriginals who first inhabited the Grampians, believed the surreal landscapes and animated structures of sandstone were designed by a creator named Bunjil in a "dream-state". I have searched the planet for the last sixteen years in hopes of discovering the type of stone and setting which can only be conjured through intense imagination, or extremely vivid dreaming.

Arctic Dreams - widescreen
four very excited South Africans and one grumpy Scottish sea dog set sail for the adventure of their lives. After crossing the Atlantic from Scotland, the team did several big wall climbs on the west coast of Greenland and north coast of Baffin Island. The most notable ascent was Improbability Drive on Impossible Wall in Greenland, a new free route that took nine days of continuous living on the wall to complete.
The team then spent another 3 months on Dodo's Delight (their 33ft fiberglass sailboat) winding their way through the Arctic islands of Northern Canada to complete the Northwest Passage to Alaska.
The project is sponsored by First Ascent Clothing, Beal, Black Diamond and Saltic, Mountain Club of South Africa, Gina Watkins Memorial Trust, Shipton Tillman Goretex Award, Clif Bar, Vega Products and Five Ten.

David Lama is best known for being able to scale the world's toughest alpine climbing routes, while Dani Arnold is famous for his speed. The two young alpinists recently teamed up for an expedition to Alaska and were able to realize a spectacular first ascent right away.
With their new route "Bird of Prey" Lama and Arnold managed to pull off the first line through the central headwall of the 1500-metre (4500 ft.) east face of Moose's Tooth.
The duo finished the demanding climb in remarkable speed, making it back to base camp within 48 hours.
Diamond in the Rain, Climbing at Its Most Difficult | Exposed, Ep. 3
When Tommy Caldwell and Jonathan Siegrist began climbing the Diamond of Longs Peak that day, they didn't expect to be involved in a life-saving rescue of another climber...
Go behind-the-scenes with Chuck Fryberger Films in this third installment of the Exposed Series. We'll follow Tommy Caldwell as he attempts to free-climb a new test piece on the Diamond of Longs Peak, CO.
The crew runs into a few roadblocks on the way including alpine thunderstorms and a serious climbing accident on the wall. Watch this video to see how the crew reacted to what can only be described as a 'difficult' day on the mountain.

Rising high and steep, the rock formations are perfect for a dramatic, technical and beautiful flight. But with a gusty exit, the pilots have their reservations.
On the second flight something unexpected happens - one of the wingsuit pilots experiences a close call when a wingsuit equipment error nearly causes a fatal accident.

A l'assaut de la tour Eiffel - Alain Pol - 1947
Extrait de "A l'assaut de la tour Eiffel" - un documentaire de Alain Pol
Résumé :
Les quatre alpinistes Pierre Allain, Jacques Poincenot, Guy Poulet et René Ferlet escaladent la tour Eiffel en 1947. Formant deux cordées, ils débutent l'assaut de la structure métallique du monument public. L'ascension, supposée illégale par un agent de police, se transforme en course-poursuite... Alain Pol filme les grimpeurs allant au bout de leur sport : ils atteignent la hampe du drapeau, redescendent en rappel, puis se rafraîchissent dans la Seine, alors qu'en fin de scénario le gendarme est embarqué par le fourgon de l'asile de Charenton qu'il a lui même demandé pour les "fous de la tour Eiffel".

These Canadian Rapid Junkies Make Waterfall Dropping Look Easy | Quebec Connection, Ep. 7
There are two ways to drop a waterfall: pitch yourself over the edge and hope for the best á la Indiana Jones, or ride the bull all the way down and stomp the landing like a boss. Can you guess which style this group of outlandish Québécois kayakers favor? In the last year Billy Thibault, Raphael Boudreault, Emrick Blanchette, Louis-Philippe Rivest, François L. Nadeau, and François Tremblay have ridden some of the finest whitewater around Quebec, Mexico, and the American Northeast. Luckily for us, they have filmed most of it and compiled their clips into a big smorgasbord of very intense lines. Check 2:48, 3:07, and 3:24 for a sample of the goods.

Norway: Stetind South Pillar solo project (720p)
This is a video of my attempt to solo Stetind, a beautiful mountain in my country Norway. the rock is amazing, pure and solid. And the place is very scenic, with the mountain raising 1392 meters straight from the fjord. The climb is up to 6b, but most is 4th and 5th class terrain. Very nice and clean climb.
You may think I'm crazy where I'm without rope, but it's actually a safety technique to move fast on easy pitches and not spend more time on the wall than necessary to avoid getting caught in the dark or bad weather midways, which was really good I used on this climb. And when free soloing, you climb well within your margins, so that you know you "can't" fall.
It shows that even though weather forecast looks good, it's important to always be prepared for the worst. I knew there was an escape ledge 2 pithces up, and went for that instead of 15-30 rapells into the clouds, depending if I find the right route down in low visibility.
The first quote is from Peter Wessel Zapffe before his ascent up the normal route of Stetind in 1937. It translates "I lay here feeling that I hate this cursed mountain, as it has power over my mind".
Sorry for any bad editing, not easy with a GoPro-camera. Best to turn on HD
