Hans Kammerlander
The nationally certified mountain and ski guide has for years belonged to the upper echelon of Alpinists. Hans Kammerlander has stood at the summit of 12 eight-thousanders of which he has climbed seven together with Reinhold Messner.
Exceptional performances have made him one of the peerless athletes of the mountaineering world. Those performances include for example the first double ascent in 1984 of two eight-thousanders (Hidden Peak at 8068 metres and Gasherbrum II at 8035 metres) without a return to base camp, as well as the first ski descent in 1996 from Mount Everest (8850 metres), the highest mountain in the world.
Perfect fit and high quality - When it comes to my LOWAs, these are features that I particularly value in addition to the functional details.

WIth that he became a part of Alpine history.
