*Nanga Parbat Winter Expedition Rescue:* It had been decided by the search team to explore the Kinshofer route (left to the Mummery Spur) this morning. The Kinshofer route is equipped with ropes fixed to the wall and could have been potentially chosen by Daniele and Tom to descend. The rescue team led by Alex Txikon searched the Kinshofer route this morning; however no sign of climbers was detected.

The search team has now returned back to Base Camp.

The search operation is looking more and more complicated by each passing day; especially with the avalanche situation.

Daniel Pons and Steffen Welsch have continued their exploration of the less visited areas of the Los Glaciares national park. In early February they visited the peaks to the southwest of Lago Viedma. Starting from Estancia Helsingfors they walked along the Seno Moyano to take a side valley to the south, just west of Cerro Huemules. After walking six hours they established camp at 1300 meters. The next day they walked to the base of the northwest of an unclimbed peak, the southern most summit of the chain of which is also part Cerro Huemules. 
.
They started climbing at 2100m, doing eight short pitches with difficulties to 5+ and A0, reaching the summit around 15:00. They measured the summit at 2348m (with no GPS) and observed that it is clearly higher than Cerro Huemules itself. They rappelled the line of ascent and reached camp around 20:30, returning to Helsingfors the next day. They christened the peak Nahumaday.
