Dani Arnold Sets New Solo Speed Record On Grandes Jorasses

Grand Jorasses – In late July 2018, 34-year-old Swiss alpinist Dani Arnold climbed the 4208-meter Walker Spur via the Cassin Route on the north face of the Grandes Jorasses in the Mont Blanc Massif in just 2 hours and 4 minutes. Unreal!

This route was first climbed by Riccardo Cassin, Luigi ‘Gino’ Esposito and Ugo Tizzoni August 4-6, 1938.
