I grew up on the eastern side of the Sierra Nevada Mountains in California. We looked up at 10,000 feet and watched the clouds snag on the peaks, the sunset behind them, and knew that the biome up there was nothing like the desert around us. I've thankful for the memories and the evidence you've supplied to so many who don't think about the different worlds around us due to elevation.

Cool video folks

What a great video and experience! Thanks for sharing that! Can you share with me the footwear used? Did I see crampons on trail runners? I have often thought about this, as mountaineering boots are tough on the feet sometimes. Can you expand on this please?

@gerardihm 3 года назад

thanks for the question! I was using the Scarpa Ribelle S, which you can put semi-automatic crampons on. They are not specifically trail runners (and I would even say a little tough on the feet in the last 10 of the 50km I did that day), but they're a great happy medium for easy alpinism/glacier walking with long approaches. Because they are not fully rigid, it is best to have a crampon with a rigid bar (rather than the lightest skimo options) for them to stay put. They have a grippy sole, and are largely waterproof with a built in gaiter, but much lighter than even the lightest mountaineering boot. Once you start getting into technical terrain you'd want something more rigid and technical.

Nice video. However, they could have abstain to publish a video saying that the pandemic FORCED them to explore there own "Alps backyard". Such a bummer... for all the people stuck in their appartments, no acess to crags, moutains, gyms or even a fingerboard. Not even speaking about the sick and dying people.
