“Sand Wurz” – a First Ascent in Peru

A first ascent during the final expedition of the Austrian Alpine Club’s Junge Alpinisten team in Peru.

Together with my then mentor, Matthias Wurzer, I made the first ascent of a great route on Point 4815 m in the Cerro Tornillo area over three days. You can read more about it on the Austrian Alpine Club youth blog (in German), which I’d like to link here.
