 Ueli Steck, the talented and speedy Swiss mountaineer, has soloed the Ginat route (ED: V M4+ 85 degrees, 1000m), the classic north-face line on Les Droites (4001m) in the French Alps above Chamonix. Though the ice route has been solo climbed numerous times, Steck made the ascent on January 19 in what may be record time: 2 hours and 8 minutes.

Since four years I string together expedition to expedition, project to project. Everything started with Khumbu Express in 2005, followed by the summit success on Gasherbrum II over the east summit, the speed records on the Eigernorthface in 2007 and 2008, the first free climb of „Paciencia“ on the Eigernorthface (2008), the speed record on Grandes Jorasses (December 2008) and speed record on Matterhorn at the beginning of this year. In June I redpoint the legendary route „Golden Gate“ at El Cap in the USA. Short afterwards I summitted Gasherbrum II (8035m), my first summit over 8000 ever. In September I succeed on Makalu (8463m). What comes next?
