上周日,Kurt作为三名教练之一,带一个17人的Via ferrrata的课程。在这样一条很简单的路线上,也许是因为大意,发生坠落。目前原因不明,但基本可以确定的是,没有把VF set的锁卡进铁索中。Kurt生前的好友Stefan Glowacz说,也许是因为过度疲倦导致了Kurt发生意外。在周六晚上Kurt还在汉堡有个报告,结束后连夜斜穿大半个德国从西北的汉堡赶到东南的巴伐利亚,带这个课程。 2003年翻译和整理(大多来自mark synnott资料)的Trango tower系列。发现这个wolfgang的伙伴。
一个传奇。
2000年、2005年划行皮划艇6天到巴芬岛,然后攀登,这是一个跨界的传奇探险故事。 老英雄怎么也没想到,最后会以这样方式结束生命。这不是阴沟里翻船了,是阴沟里翻航母。 Hi,
I learned about Alberts dead when I came back from Yosemite. The world has lost a great person, a funny guy and a fantastic climber.
