The most daring and impressive climb of last year, at least in my mind, was Ueli Steck’s solo summit of Annapurna. The video below comes our way thanks to Mountain Hardwear and it is a two minute recap of that climb, plus a look back on the other defining moment of 2013 for Ueli – the conflict on Everest. It was a turbulent year to say the least, filled with difficult challenges and incredible triumphs.
