  Great video, thanks for making and posting it! I got a great sense of the difficulties and what it might have been like to be there. I love the fact you did not use music, which might be more “entertaining” but interferes with the vicarious experience of the real atmosphere and conditions. I am curious to know why four people had to be rescued from base camp, if that is something you are able to share?

  Thank you for watching and for the kind words. I won't comment on the 4 people being rescued from base camp, other than everyone was fine and lived to tell the tale.

  Richard, another superb documentary. Thanks for sharing! Happy that you snuck in that comment about Kosciusko. I never understood the argument for using tectonic plates instead of continents. It's not like that they are going to skip Europe, since that is the same plate as Asia, or add Pico Duarte for the Caribbean plate.

  I was researching Carstensz Pyramid a few months ago from my home in California, and out of nowhere my favorite Aussie canyoneer comes out with a 45 min video on the whole shebang! Thanks Richard for sharing your experience.

• 
  @richard_pattison13 күн бұрын

  Thank you for the encouragement. Carstensz was a great experience, but lots of logistical challenges. I'd prefer to go and climb with a small group of friends, but just not realistic, I have no idea how you'd possibly negotiate your way past the local villages. So much easier to fly to America or Europe (or Australia), hire a care and then you're independent, in charge of your own destiny. If only America had the Himalaya ;)

  Thank you for the support and encouragement. My channel is a mix of my outdoor adventures - my passion is climbing and mountaineering, but I have way more movies of canyons because it's much easier to get footage/perspective of canyons than it is on a wall when you're roped to a partner.

  Christ, after seeing 44:00 I think I'd rather just trek all the way to the ocean than get into one of those planes Wonderful documenting! It seems the "politics" and group dynamics are the real challenge for Carstenz 😅

  Thank you for watching and for posting a comment. Movie making is a hobby, I'm an amateur but always looking to improve. Yes - lots of logistical challenges in reaching Carstensz, I don't know how you'd possibly get there without employing an Indonesian company to do the negotiations with the local population.

  @lizthomas153917 күн бұрын

  Great video, Richard. What an adventure - even just the approach to the approach! Carstensz has always intrigued me and scared me in equal measure for how much you control you have to relinquish to others. When was this shot?

  Hi, thank you for watching, glad you found my movie. This was 2012, it was a great experience but so many challenges and negativity, it's taken me 12 years to feel ready to edit the video, I just couldn't look at the footage of the trek until recently, too many confronting memories having to renegotiate most days during the trek. If you go, I recommend paying more to have a western leader, then you can leave the western leader to negotiate with the group each day. Richard.

  Nice video, thanks! Wich way/face do you use for rappeling? The same as for going up (the ridge)? Or another else?

• 
  @richard_pattison17 күн бұрын

  Yes, I face in towards the mountain when rappeling, the same direction as climbing up. I suppose it's not as easy to see where you're going when you're rappeling, but it's much easier to keep your body away from the rock with your legs when facing in.

  @jonslg24024 күн бұрын

  This is one of those "fail once die twice" climbs that looks ever-so-easy but is not "going for a hike" easy.. even though many real climbers see it that way. The only reason it's truly dangerous is because of the ease of complacency.

  This is a delightful hike. I've done it a number of times, taking the Hyde Draw road to the end, this route maybe the same entry point as the eastern most Cliff Dweller Flat route, except starting lower down. Thanks Richard.

  Hi Richard, would you be happy to lead 1 person up this route over a weekend?

  @richard_pattisonАй бұрын

  Hi, thanks for watching. I'm working down in Sydney now so unfortunately the GHM are not so convenient any more :( You can try one of the local climbing or adventure clubs to join a group, or, work your way up to leading this type of climb yourself, which will require investment in equipment and coaching in climbing and how to use the equipment - there are often paid coaching sessions at Kangaroo Point in Brisbane. Hope that helps to point you in the right direction, Richard.

  Hi there, could you please tell us when you summited Pacherma? We just finished doing it and we had to use fixed ropes because the climbing way was mainly blue ice and too dangerous to do it in alpine style. Thanks for answering

• 
  @richard_pattisonАй бұрын

  Hi, I climbed Parchermo a few years ago, I suppose the conditions change with the season and recent weather, plus glacier recession and climate change would have reduced some of the snow/ice in the few years between. Safe climbing :) Richard.
