The community of mountain enthusiasts is large. There are those who chase records, those who hunt for fame, those who pursue their own personal adventure, and those who look for new friends and companions for future trips. Then there are those (0.1 %) who still try to Explore and write pages of authentic mountaineering without any external help. We all have the right to climb and rejoice in what we have done. We are all called to live together peacefully, in joy and to say to the end not only what we have done and climbed but also how we have done it, in terms of style, technological and human aid. Among so many I have met in recent months in Nepal, @kilianjornet at the moment is the only one I would call an Explorer in this 2023 on Everest. The celebration of 70 years since the first ascent has in my opinion in him the real star. _______________________________ #NeverStopExploring • Theme: #SimoneMoroAlpinist • Sponsored by: @thenorthface @lasportivagram @garminitaly @camp1889outdoor @dfsportspecialist @gruppo_autotorino @somainitalia @lamantafoods @framar.spa @altitudehelicopters @thenorthfaceIT @thenorthface_climb • Managed by: @mariannazanatta @sportsandbeyondagency
February 9th, 2009 – First winter ascent of Makalu The lightest first winter ascent to an eight-thousander in history. Two mountaineers (Denis and I) and a cook were the whole team. Being able to reach the summit after 29 years of attempts was a great moment of happiness and history. It was the final Nepali eight-thousander to be climbed in winter conditions. #makalu #makaluwinterexpedition _______________________________ #NeverStopExploring • Theme: #SimoneMoroAlpinist • Sponsored by: @thenorthface @lasportivagram @garminitaly @camp1889outdoor @dfsportspecialist @gruppo_autotorino @somainitalia @lamantafoods @framar.spa @altitudehelicopters @thenorthfaceIT @thenorthface_climb • Managed by: @mariannazanatta @sportsandbeyondagency
February 26th, 2016 – First winter ascent of Nanga Parbat After more than 30 attempts, finally 7 years ago 4 mountaineers on the largest mountain on the planet wrote the history of high-altitude winter ascents. A dream realized with a team that can be called perfect. For me it was another little piece of history, the fourth and only time the same mountaineer climbed 4 different 8000-meter peaks in winter premiere. A dream within a dream!

Too many complain and philosophize about the use of the helicopter in the mountains often pointing to it as the absolute evil. But when this vehicle comes and rescues you and gets you out of trouble everyone blesses it… Today I did a rescue here in Nepal🇳🇵at 6155 meters in a particularly windy day. _______________________________ #NeverStopExploring • Theme: #SimoneMoroAlpinist • Sponsored by: @thenorthface @lasportivagram @garminitaly @camp1889outdoor @dfsportspecialist @gruppo_autotorino @somainitalia @lamantafoods @framar.spa @altitudehelicopters @thenorthfaceIT @thenorthface_climb • Managed by: @mariannazanatta @sportsandbeyondagency

“È riuscito perché lo voleva.” Nella sintesi di questa risposta c’è veramente la mia carta d’identità. […] È stato bello raccontare l’alpinismo e il mio alpinismo insieme un giornalista e amico come #viniciostefanello e di fronte a tanti altri amici ritrovati a Cortina. Ringrazio tutti 🙏 e @thenorthfaceit che ha organizzato questa serata #speakerseries dopo una giornata di sci alpinismo e arrampicata insieme alle guide e al team @cortina360. #NeverStopExploring #explorecortina #alpinismo
