  • While some have gone to Blue One, others carry on climbing and admiring the landscapes
  • Champain to celebrate the summit
  • For the ones who stay in the Orvin Range, climbing is not over yet
  • They even do not remember how many climbs they have done after the victory, just for fun
  • And sometimes, they go for one or two days trek discovering around
  • And of course then, they had fun with the kites
  • Departing for another challenge
  • The latrine igloo is almost finished
  • Finishing up the latrine igloo
  • The latrine igloo from inside
  • Shall we go for this one or not ?
  • Beautiful from far, impressive from the bottom
  • Maybe the most beautiful shot of René Robert ?
  • Below the ice, one finds sometimes more than thousands meters of granite
  • Fixing the kites for a walk
  • Still climbing all around
  • An ocean of pure and virgin ice
  • Going out for a short walk
  • Discovering the rock faces everywhere
  • The expedition had to make scientific measurements all around
  • Vertical rock faces
  • The portaledge technique
  • Passing the night in the rock face
  • Did you sleep well, guys ?
