A few hours ago, a military drone captured thermal imaging footage of Nagovitsyna’s tent on Pobeda Peak.

White Mountain Direttissima I first attempted this route in 2016. While doing it in an unsupported style (carrying all my own food & gear), I did invite friends out to join me and also cached battery bricks so that I could document the effort. I finished in just under six days. I knew there was a lot of time for improvement but didn't feel the desire to return until last summer (2024).
