Le pionnier de l'escalade sur glace Ron Koller a découvert et développé la voie il y a environ 8 ans. Au début de ce mois, le jeune guide de montagne suisse et alpiniste professionnel Yannick Glatthard a réussi la toute première ascension en voie libre de “Hall of Fame”.
Black Diamond présente : Hall of Fame avec Yannick Glatthard
« Hall of Fame » — bien au-dessus de Kandersteg, dans les Alpes suisses — est probablement la voie mixte la plus difficile au monde.
Yannick explique : « Les bonnes conditions d'escalade sont rares. Très souvent, tu ne trouveras pas de glace dans les parties basses et pas de piliers de glace en hauteur. Après quelques nuits vraiment froides, j'ai enfin trouvé des conditions d'escalade presque parfaites. Il m'a fallu 2 essais pour atteindre le sommet. Perdre un piolet en haut lors de mon premier essai m'a vraiment énervé, mais ça m'a aidé à être complètement préparé pour le second essai. Pouvoir enfin grimper cette bougie de glace massive de 30 m de haut, avec 15 m en suspension dans la partie supérieure de la voie, signifie énormément pour moi. « Hall of Fame » a tout – techniquement, physiquement, mentalement !»
