Rock ‘n’ Roll on the Wall

The long-awaited autobiography of the protagonist of the golden age of Slovenian mountaineering, who was led by the call of the mountains from the rural countryside to brutal Patagonian storms, vast Himalayan heights, radiant chimneys of the Karakorum granite, Greenland horizon, Indian monsoon, the Julian Alps, and Yosemite precipices.

Karo’s mountaineering career was most marked by the great walls of Fitz Roy, Cerro Torre, Torre Egger, and Bhagirathi, and the dedication, audacity, zeal, and sincere friendship that gave birth to the alliance of three musketeers – Silvo Karo, Franček Knez, and Janez Jeglič – Johan. Juicy and experienced stories from climbing, including Yalung Kang, Bhagirath III, and Trango Tower, perhaps the most fruitful period of Slovenian mountaineering!
