  • In 2016, three climbers reached the summit of Nanga Parbat in the winter, but for Daniele Nardi that moment was bittersweet. Daniele was supposed to be standing on the summit, but instead, he had left the peak early because of a disagreement with another climber.
    In 2019 Daniele would recruit Tom Ballard to join him on an expedition to the Killer Mountain, and there expedition would test their strength, skills, and resolve....but it is hard to defeat a peak nicknamed the Killer Mountain...This is their story.

    Both of these climbers had their obsessions. Daniele was obsessed with a winter summit of Nanga Parbat and Tom was obsessed with escaping his Mother's shadow. In the end, both of these obsessions led to their deaths

      Absolutely no disrespect to Tom’s mother. But I do not think that Tom was escaping her shadow! I review Tom’s accomplishments and quickly forget about his mother’s place in mountaineering. It’s the inverse of what you believe and wrote. Tom was that good. You don’t even understand….

    • @j.griffin

      There are at least two routes on Everest that still stand out today as unclimbed -
      the direct route up the East Face and the Fantasy Ridge aka the East Ridge.
      Both are extremely dangerous
      (obviously)
      and avalanche-prone.
      Only Tadeusz Piotrowski and Jerzy Kukuczka have ever completed the ascent of the South Face of K2 (also called the "Polish Line") -
      a very difficult and dangerous route which was threatened by seracs and had been called "suicidal" by Reinhold Messner.
      The route is so avalanche-prone, that no one else has ever considered a new attempt.
      It was during the descent by a classic route (the Abruzzi Spur) that Tadeusz lost both his crampons and fell to his death at around 7900 meters,
      following two exhausting stopovers at the wall with no food or water…
      Tadeusz is considered by many to be perhaps the finest winter mountaineer of his day.
      Jerzy is still the only person to have climbed two eight-thousanders in one winter.
      Altogether,
      he ascended four eight-thousanders in winter,
      including three as first ascents.
      This route on K2 that Piotrowski and Kukuczka climbed remains unrepeated-
      this means that it has never been climbed in the winter.
      So…
      what are you waiting for?
