ALPINEMAN, you got it wrong 美国迪克头 is not me it's the LEB. Picture to prove it.
My Translatermagizmo works funny this one; solo i tonti non si accorgono che quei chiodi non centrano con la via di Maestri, svegliatevi, quelli sono chiodi inox lo vede anche un bambino..came out like this...
only the accounts do not realize that those nails are missing because of the Masters, wake up, those are steel nails sees a child
And that's cool with me.

ci sono delle regole, loro le conoscevano e le hanno volute trasgredire, ora la gente si incazza, e può darsi che gliela facciano anche pagare, non ci troverei niente di strano, se lo meritano eccome
Googlates to
there are rules, they knew and they wanted to transgress, now people are pissed, and maybe even pay to do it to him, we would find nothing wrong, they deserve it all right
That sounds vaguely of threat with inference of a contract to harm.
Foolish words.

Wow - great post from Leo Dickenson. Welcome to McTopo, eh? I laughed out loud at the petrol-soaked Mars bars story.
But I am still pissing myself laughing at Enzo hitting on Melissa! I look forward to what will doubtlessly be her warm and enthusiastic response.
Cheers,

fòradaiball,
Do you believe Maestri ever reached the top of Cerro Torre? In 1959? In 1970?

A bolted 5.11+ and A2 variation doesn't look anything historical, IMVHO.
Good effort however for Kennedy and Kruk.
Chopping Maestri's bolts on rappel? Gross.
(yes, what Maestri did is gross too)
Now the two guys will be known as "the ones who chopped the Compressor Route": methinks there are better things to be remembered for.
Bummer for them.
Oh, and those bolts belong to Maestri, so I guess they should be returned to him (unfortunately it seems they have been confiscated by local police...).
Just my two pennies.

Would it be useful, or a waste of time, to scan and post the articles from Mountain that Leo Dickinson and others have referred to? They are the foundation for the present debate. I may be able to make time to do this, but don't know if it would be worth the bother. It would be a lot of work. The articles:
Mountain 11 - September 1970
Cerro Torre: The West Face (Carlo Mauri, 8 pages)
Mountain 16 - July 1971
The South-East Ridge of Cerro Torre (Cesare Maestri, 3 pages)
Mountain 23 - September 1972
Cerro Torre: A Mountain Desecrated! (7 pages)
Round Eleven on Cerro Torre (Leo Dickinson, 3 pages)
Interview: Cesare Maestri (7 pages)
Mountain 31 - January 1974
Blowing in the Wind (Leo Dickinson, 8 pages) - the story of their traverse of the Patagonian icecap
Mountain 38 - September 1974
Cerro Torre Climbed! (Casimiro Ferrari, 4 pages)
Mountain 42 - March 1975
Further Thoughts on the Cerro Torre Problem (Heptonstall,6 pages)
Leo: If these are scanned and posted, do you have any way to check with Ken Wilson as to whether that would be OK?

No room for the lettuce and beans of a good Taco.
