Wulkan - | 3,187 17 Nov 2015 #2KukuczkaJerzy Kukuczka world's best mountaineer? he wasn't even the best Polish climber, there were better and more famous ones like Krzysztof Wielicki or Wanda Rutkiewicz.
OP Dougpol1 31 | 2,640 17 Nov 2015 #3You don't know mountaineering then... ever heard of Alpine style climbing? Sure. It's the " norm" now of course..... For routes and for feats of endurance nobody but nobody beat Kukucka. Stick to something you know about before you comment is my advice.
Wulkan - | 3,187 17 Nov 2015 #4You don't know mountaineering thenIt seems like I know more about it than you.For routes and for feats of endurance nobody but nobody beat Kukucka.Negative sir, Krzysztof Wielicki was the best Polish mountaineer ever and Kukuczka (not "Kukucka" learn how to spell you hero's name) was very good, maybe even number 2.
OP Dougpol1 31 | 2,640 17 Nov 2015 #5It seems like I know more about it than you.I'll bite Wulkan. You tell me what ascents you've made and what degree of difficulty, and I'll share my (documented) climbs with you.Fair?
