Chris Warner on Broad Peak 1

August 29, 2013

We have been at Broad Peak base camp about a week now and have established our first camp on the mountain. Last night we found out about the Nanga Parbat killings, absolutely shocking to hear. We don’t really know the full story as yet but the 3 of us feel very safe here up in the remote Baltoro.

We plan to keep to our program and after resting a few days in BC we will head back up to push to camp 2, Tomorrow we will walk up to K2 base camp which is about a hour away and see who’s arrived. It’s also a chance for us to shuttle some gear up there, ready for our attempt on K2 after acclimatising on Broad Peak.

Climbing in the Warrumbungles

The sunrises, campfire stories, wondering if you are on route, and memories made with friends is what it is about. The Warrumbungles is certainly a special place to experience these things.

Fantastic Fagus

It’s that time of year again when Australia’s only native deciduous plant, Nothofagus Gunnii or the Deciduous Beech, affectionately known as Fagus, or less affectionately....Tanglefoot, bursts into a mass of golden colour before the cold Tasmanian winter.
