The Matterhorn, Zermatt, Switzerland.
One of my projects this summer is to make an album of alpine field recordings. The recordings will be pressed onto heavy weight vinyl and each track will be accompanied by a colour plate.

I was lucky enough to be in New York last week hanging shows at Y&R and BBH.

At 6856 meters above sea level, Ama Dablam is a Himalayan giant. Her name translates to Mother’s Necklace after the huge hanging glacier that can be seen near the summit of the south face. This picture is taken from Chukung Ri on the other side of the Khumbu valley.
As we look at the mountain the left ridge leading to the summit is the northwest ridge. It was first climbed in 2001 by Jules Cartwright and Rich Cross. They climbed alpine style without the use of oxygen.

Coming to your desk soon ! Call of the yeti. It took me all my powers of persuasion to get my girlfriend into the yeti suit… standing on the cable car is another story though…

The Mer de Glace glacier under Mont Blanc is full of crevasses. We had to ‘rope up’ the yeti to be sure it didn’t disappear through a weak snow bridge. What you can’t see here is the rope leading to a very sturdy mountain guide with his ice axe buried deep enough to arrest a fall. The Mer de Glace area its self isn’t that remote, it’s serviced by Europe’s highest cable car Call of the Yeti – Plan de l’Aiguille which transports tourists to the top of the Aiguille di Midi and the mountaineers who come to explore the Mont Blanc Massif . On our journey back to the cable car we passed a few groups of alpinists. We were all roped up so as not to fall off anything. Martha chose to leave the yeti costume on for warmth…… it looked like the mythical yeti had finally been caught !
