“The endless and dangerous summit ridge. You must not give up and turn back... We are dominated by K2, which is dominating. Great pride to have succeeded in this summit with the young Fida Ali who reached his first 8000. This is the beginning of my collaboration with Yan, my meteorologist. Without his precious weather data at Camp 3, I would certainly have turned back like the majority of climbers... Thanks Yan!”
