Raising the bar in alpinism

[olyclimber]

These two guys are definitely raising the bar. It's going to be a tough act to follow. Maybe carry at full sized DigDug up the West Ridge?

Yah, but the hand crank charger they mention in the article is a great idea.

I know I've had batteries die during those “hours of nothing to do once the sun goes down.”

If they die people can say they were doing the thing they loved best- playing video games.

The lo-tech hand crank is a time-tested method of passing tedious bivies.

Minx, I think it is Squid who needs the different tent "mate".

Hello nodder

This is nothing new

I made ascent of Fantasy Ridge in 1994 playing handheld Pac Man with LED display but did not bother to report it because I thought for sure had been done already.

Thank you for allow avatar to post.

Extra batteries for the "alpine vibrator" are probably worth the extra weight.

again, a better tent mate would solve the problem and requires carrying no extra weight.

I wonder what the fastest game time or highest scores were on these kinds of climbs. Maybe they set some sort of new record. Can anyone confirm that? Check it out on mountainspeedplaying.org.

I just put saddle bags on my sheep.

Where do I sign up for the trek to the top of Everest? sounds much easier than climbing the thing.

[Cobra_Commander]

you would not meet the prerequisite high score requirements on ikari warriors. Remember - up up down down left right left right b a start summit!

so you've been taking my advice. i bet your sheep has the added bonus of providing extra warmth when you spoon.
