#mountaineering — Public Fediverse posts

With the Matterhorn so close by, the Ober Gabelhorn (4063m) is probably a bit underappreciated, so perfect for a bit of Mountain-Monday-spotlighting.

What an epic view 🤩

This was an amazing moment I was able to enjoy this morning. The tour didn't go as planned so there was plenty of time to watch the capricorns all over the place around this beautiful scenery.

Watching glaciers makes me a bit sad as they're really in bad condition and I am hoping for a strong winter ahead. 🥶❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️

The great Snowdon queue-skipping row – is it really OK to jump the line if you’re not taking a selfie?
By Guardian Staff

The crowds at the top of Yr Wyddfa, the highest mountain in Wales, are now so huge that seasoned hikers and climbers are simply walking past them. Is everyone just making a mountain out of a molehill?

We departed at 6:15. Myself as the guide, my son and a friend of mine. The friend of mine was never on a glacier before and is not used to scrambling so I planned with plenty of spare time. I defined 11am for the latest return point.
We were slow but well within the predefined time frame. The glacier is almost snow free with several crevascres, however it's an easy glacier, mostly almost flat. The final scrambling up to the summit I just did with my son, my friend decided to wait for us as he didn't feel confident enough to do the final scrambling. So we just spent a few minutes at the summit enjoying the views.
Back at the hut we refilled and descended back to Curaglia.

All in all a little bit more than 800m ascend and almost 2000m descent.

Back home at 22:20 - exhausted but happy.

Here's an example of #China using cinematic feature films as #nationalist #propaganda. It's a very well done, high budget film. You can see how dramatic films like these are used to promote nationalistic pride. These state approved propaganda films are disguised as entertainment & are designed to brainwash citizens, over time.

It's really not that different than how the USA film industry creates a lot of state approved propaganda films that aid/abet nationalistic BS too.

*Qomolangma is #Tibetan for #MountEverest
‐----------
" It is based on the real-life expedition of four #Chinese #mountaineers in 1960. Two generations of Chinese mountaineers who scaled Mount #Qomolangma from the perilous north side in 1960 and 1975. Finally in 1975 they held the last chance and successfully reached the top of Qomolangma. It was the first success in the history of mankind to climb Qomolangma's north side. "

"Conquering the peak isn't the real summit; the real summit means standing at the top of the mountain and then getting back down to base camp safely and going home happily to celebrate the achievement."
