Never too late
Франция
Добавлен 7 окт 2011
One day we wake up and realize that at almost 50-years old we are caught up in an infernal cycle in the "pursuit" of happiness: work, car, house and barbecue... and that all our childhood dreams have disappeared. What do we have to do ? Continue to maintain the extra pounds because it is too late to change anything, it is the easiest solution. Or to make considerable efforts to change our habits. We opted for the second solution! Life can be exciting, so get out there and enjoy.

Bietschhorn, impregnable fortress #1 - solo climb
Просмотров 1,9 тыс.Год назад
I call Bietschhorn an impregnable fortress, I tried to climb it alone in all seasons and after several unsuccessful attempts I finally made it to the top. The Bietschhorn, nicknamed "the King of Valais", is a peak in the Swiss Alps. It reaches almost 4,000 meters above sea level, 3.934 meters exactly. I saw it for the first time during our hike around Saas-Almagell (ruclips.net/video/5vM9agf-Lt...

Undertaking a winter hike in these high mountains is akin to an expedition; thorough preparation is paramount. One must be equipped t...

Great video you have inspired me to go here
Thank you so much! I’m glad the video inspired you to visit! Don’t hesitate to check out our other videos from the Dolomites, and feel free to subscribe for more hikes. Do you live in the Dolomites or have you been there before?
Thank you for your inspiring channel. I love the name and description and that you are just out there sending it. Let's go ✊
Thank you so much for your support! I’m really glad you love the name and vibe of the channel. It means a lot to hear that you find it inspiring! Let’s keep going and keep the energy high. By the way, do you practice mountaineering?
@@never-too-late Thanks for the reply. I used to mountaineer up until I injured my back 2 years ago :( So I can only walk for 1-2 hours now and also if I was to slip I would be in big trouble. So I can't do another mountain yet. I am waiting for "further" help from the health service but I am not confident in them as they have barely helped me at all so far. I am on a very long waiting list for "pain management" (instead of surgery) because apparently I have to do that first. I think they want me to give up and live like this forever. But I am hoping I can save up to get private health care instead and get it fixed properly one day. So your videos give me something to look forward to and stay hopeful :) Thank you
I'm really sorry to hear about your injury and the long wait you're going through for treatment. It must be incredibly frustrating not to get the help you need, especially when you want to get back to doing what you love. I'm glad that the videos give you something to look forward to - stay hopeful! Wishing you a smooth recovery, and in the meantime, it's great that you're still able to enjoy some walking. Take care of yourself, and thank you for sharing your story!
@@never-too-late Thanks a lot man. One day I will do some of the ones you have done :)
I have really enjoyed watching your videos! I also have a question regarding the issues that I saw you having with your crampons. What is it about the crampon that is causing the issue, and have you resolved it yet? I have a similar boot and want to get crampons eventually without having problems.
I'm glad you've enjoyed watching my videos! Regarding the crampon issue, the problem was with the metal bar that connects the front and back parts of the crampon. If you have larger feet, you might end up using the last adjustment hole, which can cause the two parts of the crampon to separate. To solve this, I bought a longer bar, which allows me to use the next adjustment hole instead, ensuring the crampon stays secure. There are still additional holes, so it's not at the last one anymore. Feel free to ask if you have more questions! Don't forget to share my videos with your friends and subscribe to my channel.
Did you aclimatise before for this?
Acclimatisation can be different for everyone, but I personally didn't have any major issues with it. Doing lots of trail running definitely helped me prepare for this. About a month earlier, I climbed Wetterhorn, which also contributed to my acclimatisation. You can see the video by following this link: [ruclips.net/video/hYpjMXDhuRQ/видео.html].
Amazing ❤❤❤

Is there gpx of this? Komoot and Maps.me dont seem to have this route.
You can find the GPX file link in the description of the video. Are you planning to do this route?
@@never-too-late Yes, I see it now. Possibly I might try. Any advices not seen in the video?
Glad to hear you're considering it! Here are a few tips: make sure to take a 60m rope with you. If you're not feeling confident at any point, it's okay to give up and return when you're ready. Also, if you start from the glacier cave parking, be prepared and in good shape, as it's a challenging route.
For anyone considering this route, it's worth knowing that especially in recent years, the top sections of the West Flank are extremely chossy and full of loose rock that can be very very dangerous. Even if the climbing is not of a high grade, loose terrain can make it pretty scary especially on the descent. I soloed the route in the summer 2024 season and had a few "oh shit" moments near the summit. Prepare accordingly and have the proper gear/experience.
Thanks for the heads-up! I would also advise taking a 60m rope to help secure the descent. It's always better to be prepared, especially in areas with loose rock and chossy conditions. Stay safe out there!
i cannot watch it because of the music.
I'm sorry to hear that the music was an issue. I've uploaded another version of this video with lower music, which you can watch here: ruclips.net/video/oTAD14AwKjE/видео.html. Let me know if this version works better for you!
For me, you seem a little overloadet for that kind of tour / mountain. But thats personal style and opinion. Nevertheless, great sucess.
Thank you for your feedback! I agree that everyone has their own style, and I prioritize safety because the mountains can be unpredictable. Security has its price, but it’s worth it. If you’re interested, you can check out my video from Finsteraarhorn/Top of Europe to see more.

why the "music"?
Thanks for the comment! I understand that the music might not be everyone's preference. I'm not sure why it seems so loud on some setups, but I've uploaded a low-volume version of the video here: ruclips.net/video/oTAD14AwKjE/видео.html. I appreciate you checking out the video!
dude the music is so loud... and why??
Thanks for the feedback! I'm not sure why the sound is too loud on some configurations-it's something I'm looking into. In the meantime, I've uploaded a low-volume version of the video here: ruclips.net/video/oTAD14AwKjE/видео.html. Hopefully, that one works better for you. Thanks for watching!

You dont conquer, the mountain let you go upstairs.......
You’re absolutely right! The mountain allows us to reach the summit, and it's always important to respect its power and beauty.
It's called EIGER MÖNCH und JUNGFRAU.........
Thank you for the clarification.

Coming straight from down it's a bit achievement.. although... not sure if that's a proper kit for via Ferrata... and I would advise for a helmet. Enjoy your next experiences.. looks nice what you are doing.
Thank you for your comment! Coming straight from down was indeed a big achievement. I appreciate your concern about the proper kit for via Ferrata and the advice for a helmet. Safety is very important, and I’ll definitely consider it for future adventures. Glad you enjoyed the video, and I hope you continue to follow along with my experiences. Enjoy!
When is the next part coming? I'd love to see your attempt with the summit!
Thank you for your interest! I'm currently quite busy with my work, but I will certainly work on it after the summer.
Big respect for solo climbing because its looks very dangerous
Thank you for your comment! Solo climbing indeed comes with its risks, but it's also incredibly rewarding. I appreciate the respect. Don't hesitate to watch my other videos for more climbing adventures and tips!

En tout cas ce sommet est très joli avec vues sur les glaciers si blancs, dommage que je n'ai plus l'âge d'y aller. 👋🏻😊
Merci pour votre commentaire ! Ce sommet offre effectivement des vues magnifiques sur les glaciers. Mais il y a aussi des montagnes plus accessibles où la nature est tout aussi belle et où vous pouvez profiter de paysages splendides sans les défis des grandes ascensions. 👋🏻😊
Faut avoir une dose de courage pour s'aventurer sur une arête aussi effilée. Rien qu'à voir la video ça me paraît vertigineux. 😮 Faut savoir renoncer en montagne, c'est un gage de sécurité. 👋🏻😄⛈️
Merci beaucoup pour votre commentaire ! C'est vrai, il faut surtout une bonne dose de préparation pour s'y aventurer. La vidéo ne rend peut-être pas justice à la sensation vertigineuse sur place ! Renoncer est en effet une sage décision en montagne, la sécurité avant tout. Vous pouvez voir ma nouvelle tentative pour atteindre l'Aiguille de Bionnassay sur cette vidéo: ruclips.net/video/DKA6eAAKqBM/видео.html.
@@never-too-late merci beaucoup, j'y vais de ce pas. 😊👋🏻
On ne dit pas plutôt l'aiguille du Tricot ?
En fait, je n'ai pas atteint l'Aiguille, je n'ai dépassé que la pointe supérieure :-(

ty for the video bro. Fo you need a permit or to pay a pass to climb Eiger. Im thinking of doing a winter north face climb in the future
Hey! Thanks for the comment. No, you don't need a permit or have to pay for a pass to climb the Eiger. It's free to climb. However, attempting the north face in winter is an enormous challenge. Are you planning to do it solo? Make sure you're well-prepared, as the conditions can be extremely tough and dangerous. Good luck with your planning!
Bob always nice to see your adventures I haven’t seen yet😍 going myself tomorrow to Kandersteg for some adventure, the weather forecast isn’t that shiny, let’s see what will happen
Hey! Thanks for the kind words 😍. Kandersteg sounds like an awesome adventure, even with the less-than-ideal weather forecast. How was your trip? Did the weather hold up for you? Can't wait to hear about your adventures!
@@never-too-late hey Bob thanks for your reply, yes I had an amazing time here, yesterday I had an amazing alpinist experience, I climbed the Innere fisistock and had to go up 1600 meters and again all the way down, there was still lots of snow and the last 200 to 300 meters I had to navigate through fog climbing a pretty steep snow wall with my ice pickle. I had no prior experience doing this kind of adventure alone with a T5 level, there were no marked paths and some risky exposure moments. I doubted a few times to continue, but at one point I said to myself let’s do it you live only once😅
I attempted this same hike, and route, in July 2016. I got to the top of the rocky knoll ( where the ladder is ) and decided to descend back to Engelberg The problem was that it became incredibly hot, and I had used much more energy than I had planned because of a massive snowfield blocking my path to the Stand Cable car station. The glare of the sun coming off the peak was blinding, even with my googles on. But I enjoyed it anyway Thank you for the enjoyable video
Thanks for sharing your experience! Sounds like you had quite an adventure. That snowfield must have been a real challenge, especially with the intense sun glare. Glad to hear you enjoyed it despite the difficulties. The Titlis climb can definitely surprise you with its conditions. Thanks for watching and appreciating the video!
@@never-too-late Thanks for kind reply. Once my left Achilles has fully healed, I'll be back off to Switzerland. This year, the schilthorn and other fabulous hikes
Well done ! 👍 inspire me
Thank you! 👍 I'm glad to hear that. The Swiss Alps are incredibly beautiful, and the hiking paths are truly memorable. I'm sure you'll have an amazing time exploring them!
Great video! Nice! l... I dont have Your stamina (and balls !) !
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. It took a lot of effort and courage, but the adventure was totally worth it. Keep pushing your limits-you might surprise yourself!
@@never-too-late thanks! Did I see correctly that you didn't have an ascender divice? Couldn't you have used a prusik for the part with the rope? The knots on the end were a nice idea, but falling 5m still hurts? This part really got me scared...
