Thirty-seven years ago, Patrick Gabarrou and Hervé Bouvard defied the impossible when they opened the Walker Diretissima route on the north face of the Grandes Jorasses. As of February 37, no alpinist has managed to repeat this route. Charles Dubouloz, Symon Welfringer and Clovis Paulin set out to climb this wall and set themselves an additional goal: to make the first free winter ascent. Welcome to the icy world of the unknown!

A memorable story from the heart of Greenland. Embark on an incredible adventure with a colorful team led by Bronwyn Hodgins and Jacob Jacob. More than 400 kilometers of kayaking amidst the Arctic, its icebergs and whales, to reach and climb an 800 meter high, untouched big wall. A tough destination and moody weather, but a great atmosphere and breathtaking landscapes. Pure inspiration.
