Simone Moro back from 3 days on the face of Shishapangma

Hello friends!! We are back to base camp after 3 difficult days on the face. We reached 7000 meters and fixed 1500 meters of rope. We didn’t find any place to place our last camp (C2) but we still continue to climb and fix rope.... We are thinking to do a bivac for the final attempt...

The face is totally icy and vertical and we have to climb with helmets and 2 ice axes. From the summit ridge stones and ice continues to fall and we “play” to avoid the impact....

I’m sending you 2 photos to understand our climb.. Follow us Simone

Ciao and keep in touch, Simone
