Speaker
Brette Harrington:
In the summer of 2018, after the passing of her partner Marc-André Leclerc, Brette Harrington returned to Alaska where she made a collective six first ascents on the Juneau Ice Field. Brette will explore the themes of finding inspiration and solace in the mountains while recounting the the different climbs she made throughout the season. To conclude her trip, her final ascent was one of great accomplishment by making the first ascent of the west face of Devils Paw, 1300m.
Films
La Congenilità – The Attitude of Gratitude:
Simone Moro and Tamara Lunger are an odd pair. As the team heads for Kanchenjunga to attempt the highest traverse across 8000-meter peaks, their roles begin to shift.
Cerro Kishtwar – An Ice Cold Story:
Stephan Siegrist, Thomas Huber and Julian Zanker attempt a new line on Cerro Kishtwar. The plan was to climb alpine style but the difficulties were harder than expected, let's just say things didn't go exactly according to plan.
