Beschreibung:
A unique insight from the 2004 Boardman-Tasker award winner into a time when mountains were not subjected to the all-out onslaught of tourist climbers ticking off the peaks as they went, leaving a landscape littered with waste. Evokes a nostalgic past to true aesthetic mountaineering.
