I had brought my copy of his book, and he explained that the "Traverse" of the title had a second, moral implication: the "transgression," like Julius Caesar crossing the Rubicon and setting off the bloody civil war that established the Roman Empire. After von Kienlin's book came out, another member of the expedition, Gerhard Baur, came forth and said that Messner had also told him he was planning to do the traverse. "After the museum, there will be a new challenge," he assured me. Thirty-one people had died on it by 1953, when Hermann Buhl finally reached the top, and 30 more have died since. Over the next three decades, Reinhold returned to the Diamir Face many times and spent days searching, but Günther remained lost without a trace, joining a distinguished roster of climbers that includes A. F. Mummery, the greatest Victorian alpinist, who disappeared high on the same face in 1895; George Mallory and Andrew Irvine, who disappeared on Everest in 1924 (Mallory's body was found in 1999); and Reinhold's hero, Hermann Buhl, who disappeared on Chogolisa, in the Karakoram range, in 1957.

He had all the documents from the lawsuit, for instance, chronologically filed in a thick binder. "I said, 'Someday, maybe not in my lifetime, my brother will be found on the Diamir Face.' A solo-climbing pioneer, Buhl, with the Italian Walter Bonatti, was Messner's main role model. outburst—von Kienlin writes that he plans to go to the market the following day and buy some hats for his children. By 1969 the Alps had become too small for Messner, so he went to the Peruvian Andes and pioneered two ascents there. Von Kienlin had never met anyone like Messner, and he became absorbed in his new friend's triumph and tragedy. At the last moment, another climber dropped out, and Messner was able to get his brother Günther on the expedition. Reinhold spent a night and a day looking frantically for his brother, in case Günther had survived. I've just heard that the bone is Günther's, with a margin of error of 1 in 575,000." aus Berlin hat u.a.

Four days later, Reinhold appeared on the other side of the mountain, at the foot of the western, Diamir Face, which is encrusted with hanging glaciers and seracs (precariously poised blocks of ice) that are forever breaking off and causing avalanches. It seemed odd that right after the really explosive parts—Messner's incriminating remarks about planning the traverse and his "Where's Günther?" Now he longed for an opportunity to tackle the big boys: the 14 eight-thousanders in Central Asia—in the Himalayan, Karakoram, Hindu Kush, and Pamir ranges.

Buhl ended up taking off for the summit alone, and Herrligkoffer sued him for disobeying orders and writing his own book. That left only the Diamir Face." He received death threats and letters containing feces. One will only say, for instance, 'Got to Camp Three on June 17.' When we reach the foot of the mountain, the punished porter comes close to me and thanks me with folded hands and remains by my side and does not leave me any more. That we didn't go down right away is proof that we were still trying to get down the Rupal Face. He became the local schoolteacher and married an intelligent, kindhearted local woman named Maria. They had eight sons and a daughter: Helmut, Reinhold, Erich, Günther, Waltraud, Siegfried, Hubert, Hansjörg, and Werner. "Reinhold is ambitious, like Caesar," the baron said.

SIEGFRIED E' IL SECONDO DEI MESSNER TRADITO DALL' AMORE PER LA MONTAGN BOLZANO - Siegfried Messner, trentacinque anni, fratello minore del più famoso Reinhold, è stato operato ieri mattina in Austria, nella clinica universitaria di Innsbruck, specializzata in traumatologia cranica. It was this appeal, von Kienlin says, that prompted him to write his book. He took me to Villnöss, the valley in the nearby Dolomites where he grew up.

The special page had been reproduced on the back endpapers of the first edition of the book but was gone from the second. Memories become fixed along certain lines. In the fall of 1971, Messner took Demeter to Nanga Parbat, and they went to the Diamir side to see if they could find any trace of Günther. He tried to get eight climbers to the top, but they all died, as did Merkl. He was his factotum, his grunt, and he already owed Reinhold for even being on the expedition. But in the summer of 2003 two members of the 1970 expedition came out with books attacking Reinhold's version of events and accusing him of choosing ambition over saving his brother's life.

Reinhold's was the first ever traverse—climbing one face and coming down another—of Nanga Parbat. "Surely Uschi did not leave her family, the castle, and a wealthy German nobleman to live with a poor South Tyrolean climbing freak unless she was very unhappy.". He expected unquestioning obedience from his climbers and had a Wagnerian obsession with conquering Nanga Parbat, "with its bright golden adventures, its manly struggles and austere mortal dangers," as Merkl wrote. "Günther was more submissive than I was, so he got beaten more," Messner continued. Von Kienlin's publisher was ordered to remove from the second edition of his book 13 of 21 passages to which Messner had objected, including his alleged remark about not wanting to miss "the opportunity to make this traverse.". In December 2003, Messner took me to his stunningly sited castle, in Juval, South Tyrol, on a knoll guarding the head of the Schnalstal Valley, which was one of the main routes north through this part of the Alps for a bunch of armies, from Charlemagne's to Napoleon's.
