Patagonian Winter

PATAGONIAN WINTER

Watch the alpine classic from 2007 as a stand alone. Andy Kirkpatrick is a pioneer of winter climbing in Patagonia with many hair-raising ascents to his name.

This hilarious film documents his 2007 Patagonian horror show; an attempt at the first winter ascent of Torre Egger with fellow alpinist Ian Parnell. The rib tickling character development of these two off the wall characters is followed by their efforts under Torre Egger going from bad to worse to 'we've-been-stuck-under-this-rock-for -four-day'.

As touching and insightful as it is entertaining. (31mins)
