Vanavond om ongeveer 20:45 zullen Jelle Staleman en Niek de Jonge te horen zijn op bij BNN Today op Radio 1. Zij zullen praten over hun geplande expeditie naar Groenlands Graniet. De vraag is: 'Wat doe je als bergbeklimmer als je de standaard klimroutes saai vindt?' Juist ja, nieuwe openen. Luisteren dus!
From August 6 till September the 17th of this year a small expedition will take place in a very remote area on the east coast of Greenland. The destination Renland is a peninsula situated 500 km north of the polar circle in between the world?s biggest fjord and the Greenland icecap. Renland contains a treasure of unclimbed mountains with steep granite pillars and faces of more then 1200 meter in height. In a period of six weeks we will climb unclimbed peaks by not necessarily the easiest route. Due to the lack of information the expedition will have a high amount of exploration.
The expedition will take place together with an other climbing team consisting of Gerke Hoekstra and Martin Fickweiler.
