Re: Where's the pic England v5

Exactly, well done. Looking towards the true [Marilyn] summit with Skiddaw in the background. It's an outlier, but I think the Wainwright summit is closer to Cockermouth.

Your turn!

Re: Monte Leone

Thanks for posting this. I've tried and failed to climb Monte Leone, once, in November 2022. Looking back, I think this is one of the most challenging and potentially dangerous things I've done in the mountains. We were, unsurprisingly, the only group on the mountain and the crevasses were covered w...

Re: Where's the pic England v5

You got it Simon :clap: . Ingleborough on 11/11. It's taken from the western edge of the summit plateau, which explains why it doesn't look particularly flat.

Re: Where's the pic England v5

Clue: This is not in the Lake District and has a name that sounds more like a city than a fell.

Re: Where's the pic England v5

Merci. Looks like you had optimal conditions (frozen ground) for that bogfest :wink:

Which fell was this taken from?

Re: Dufourspitze - climbing Switzerland's highest mountain

Thanks all for the comments. I'd actually attempted Zumsteinspitze the previous year with a group, but we were beaten back by strong winds and made do with the Signalkuppe instead. The traverse from Dufour looks pretty serious (AD or AD+) and needs good conditions. The last I heard about the travers...

Dufourspitze - climbing Switzerland's highest mountain

Dufourspitze (4634 m) is the highest summit of Monte Rosa and is the highest point in Switzerland. Country high points tend to be horrifically over-popular, attracting people who clearly don't have the skills or fitness to climb them. Dufourspitze is a probable exception though. It's popular, but pr...
