Andy Lewis died on June 14 near Moab, Utah, in a BASE jumping accident. Moab had become his kingdom, his playground, and the place where he shared his passion. After slacklining and highlining, like others before him he had become a BASE specialist, with that same intensity, that same blend of technique and instinct, of seriousness and challenge. https://alpinemag.com/farewell-andy-sketchy-lewis/

Janja Garnbret has just completed “Bibliographie,” a 9b+ route, in Céüse, in France. The Slovenian climber has made the first female ascent of this major route, which was established by Alex Megos in 2020. She also becomes only the second woman to reach the 9b+ grade (5.15c), after Brooke Raboutou. An extraordinary achievement. https://alpinemag.com/climber-janja-garnbret-first-woman-ascent-bibliographie-9b-ceuse-france/

He went missing on May 29, during the final hours of the climbing season on Everest. Found alive but suffering from frostbite on June 4 at the base of the Khumbu Icefall, Hillary Dawa Sherpa survived for several days without food or assistance before finally being rescued as he crawled through the snow and scree near base camp. A miracle that also raises serious questions.

On May 12, Bartek Ziemski reached the summit of Lhotse, at 8,516 meters, before strapping on his skis to descend to base camp via the extremely steep west couloir, dubbed “the dream line” by the first and only other skiers—Americans—in 2018. Without supplemental oxygen, without a Sherpa, and without fixed ropes installed all the way to the summit, in difficult snow conditions, the Polish alpinist achieved a solo feat and a major milestone in the history of Himalayan skiing.

Forty years ago, on May 11, 1986, French explorer Jean-Louis Étienne reached the geographic North Pole alone, after 63 days of walking and more than a thousand kilometers across the ice. No GPS, no satellite phone. Just a sextant and an obsessive idea: the North Pole. 63 days of solitude, for a feat that we might call “analog” today.

The Garmin Fenix 8 Pro takes almost everything from the Fenix 8, but adds what the range was still missing: real communication capability without a smartphone, for alpinists, explorers. LTE, satellite, messages, position sharing, SOS: Garmin brings its outdoor watch closer to the inReach universe. To put it simply, a fēnix 8 Pro is a fēnix 8 with a built-in inReach beacon.

On Everest, drones have gradually become indispensable, first for finding the best route through the Icefall, and then, for the past two seasons, for transporting gear to Camp 1 using a cargo drone. However, their development has just been halted —temporarily?— by the Nepalese authorities, even though the equipping of the normal route is already significantly behind schedule this season.

On Saturday, April 25, 2026, the margin between history and almost-history on Mont Blanc came down to just two minutes.

The thing about records and FKTs – Fastest Known Times : they’re meant to be broken. A century after the first Chamonix Zermatt Ski Traverse, speed has changed everything. It has altered our perception of distances, of things, and of the mountains themselves, writes Jocelyn Chavy. Link in comments.
