Colin Haley solos North Buttress of Begguya (Mt. Hunter) round-trip in 17 hours
Colin Haley completed one of his longstanding projects on May 12 with the first solo ascent of the North Buttress of Begguya (Mt. Hunter) which he climbed round-trip from base camp in 17 hours, 13 minutes. He’d soloed the North Buttress before but never summited, coming as close as 100 meters to the top.
