After a fantastic dinner with the great chef Antonio Buono in his restaurant in Ventimiglia, Italy.

First ascent „Omicron“ in the northern Austrian alps with my friend Christian Hacksteiner.

Christian tackling “Omicron’s” first pitch.

Thin ice in “Omicron’s second pitch.

Me actually having great fun in the fifth pitch of our fantastic “Omicron” first ascent.

An ice climb with a view, north-west face of Sasso Pordoi, Dolomites, Italy.

Max after three hours of ascent at the beginning of “Via Snowboard” on Sasso Pordoi.

The backdrop on Sasso Pordoi are the great rock faces of Piz Chiavazes und Sasso Lungo, Italian Dolomites.

The five ice pitches of „Via Snowboard“ on Sasso Pordoi.

After eight hours on Sasso Pordoi the sun sets.

The third pitch of „Yellow Submarine“, Wi 6-, Gastein Valley, is not a walk.

Here’s what happens when you are not well rested when (performing) climbing: I was slow to react to a falling icicle…

Two days later and well rested I am back in business on “Hardcore”, Wi 6, Gastein Valley, Austria.

The delicate column of „Popeye“, Wi 6, follows suit.

The Grünseefälle („green lake ice falls“) near Uttendorf, province of Salzburg, are another world class ice climbing area. Interestingly, it is rarely frequented!

One of many challenging pitches at the Green Lake Falls.

View from the heart of the Green Lake Falls towards our first ascent „Triptychon“, the hardest route in the area, see PHOTOS 2016 and 2017.

Two Thomases on the summit!
