75 The Golden Age of Alpinism

Idiots Talk History

This week Lorna struggles with her podcast report, but it's actually fascinating, all about the rise in popularity of mountaineering. There are a lot of peak names, but we brush over them, but you can find them on the Twitter so keep your eyes pealed. There are some interesting tales, including the creation of the Alpine Club and the women of the Golden Age.

Matt struggles with his guessing this week and he tells of our own recent walking experience on New Years Day, when we were very unprepared for a walk/climb with friends.
