Video: gear for Nanga Parbat


Click on this text to access this 15 minute video which has Steve House sharing his thoughts on all the gear he took up the Rupal Face. Some specialized thoughts: titanium pins and only a few cams, air mattress, one sleeping bag for a climbing pair, 8mm rope and a 5mm static rap line, lightweight tools for the second, wire gate superlight biners, and he talks of some interesting modifications on the crampons.
