Top Big Wall Climber Sílvia Vidal from Barcelona Tonight at VIMFF
February 27, 2009 | 535x

Sílvia's 21-day solo epic route on Shipton Spire in Pakistan is called "Life is Lillac" - why? "During the 21 days on the wall I suffered pretty bad bad weather: it snowed for 12 days. This meant that I climbed every day as much as I could until my hands and my head forced me to stop, except for one whole day which I spent on the portaledge. I spent so many hours inside the bivvy during these bad weather days that I tried to imagine what colour life is. And for me, at that moment, it was was lilac. This is how the name of the route came about: Life is lilac. Why not?" [SV]
