07/13 - Exercise Boreal Zenith
WO1 (ASM) Sam Marshall, with Capt Sally Brown, Maj Cath Davies, Maj Kev Edwards, Capt Beth Hall-Thompson, Cfn Ollie Noakes, Lt Dave Stanley and Ocdt Joe Williams (July-August 2007)
This expedition, planned to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Army Mountaineering Association, visited Andrees Land in NE Greenland – an area possibly not visited by climbers since the fifties - to explore and climb new routes. With fairly good conditions throughout – only 3 days lost due to bad weather – they made 34 ascents, ranging from simple snow plods to steep north faces (Alpine PD to D, and up to HVS on rock). Of these, 29 were first ascents.
