The Mallory-Porter is a classic route on the North Face of the Aiguille du Midi. The conditions were good so we headed up for a quick climb of a classic route.

I was just in Chamonix and took the tram to the Aiguille du Midi station and that elevation is no joke.

Enjoyed the podcast. I don’t have any real suggestions, but I hope you get in a regular release. Not sure how you all plan to do more, but I hope it is soon. Cheers!

I can literally not watch this... We were up there on saturday (had driven from Belgium to Cham fridaynight) slept in the winterraum of refuge Plan de l'Aiguille. Weather for sunday looking decent. Actual weather on sunday TOTAL CRAP! lots of fresh snow falling, total white-out, bailed out and decided to just drive back home. Now you post this, this is soooo painful...

@mattgroom5179 5 лет назад

I’m sorry, it will be there when you get back. Better to walk away than risk it with dodgy constituents...

@ThomasWuyts 5 лет назад

@@mattgroom5179 Very true... A gentle reminder that we should adapt to the mountains and not the other way around! Painful nonetheless... Also glad to see you making an alpine climbing video again. Those are the ones I enjoy the most!

Do you feel like mountaineering and rock climbing (bouldering/sport climbing) add to each other at all? The middle of this video looked like mostly scrambling, and I'm curious how much overlap there is.

@Matthew-px9nu 5 лет назад

Jacob Posner I’d say compliment but still really different , more crampon , weather elements , tools, and adventure in mountaineering ... personally I love it to be not always going straight up a steep rock face but wandering through mixed terrain ...

@meme-ze6sm 5 лет назад

Can you explain to a newbie why you didn't use a rope most of the time? Looked steep as hell! And wouldn't you just fall down if there's a loose rock or something?

@mattgroom5179 5 лет назад

Hi, the route is fairly hard to protect as most of it is steep snow. So if you roped up and one falls then both of you die, as you would drag the other person off the mountain. So sometimes it’s better to unrope. Speed is important as well. It was terrain we were both happy climbing so we made the decision to do most of it without a rope.

It's not really that steep, and is actually very straight forward. The technical axes they were using are rather overkill and are actually a disadvantage on this type of terrain. Pitching a route however of this length will lead to time problems. Travel light and fast in the alps and use a rope when needed. These chaps climbed this well.
