어느 실패 등반대의 기록
Mountain, March 2009, Vol. 89, pp. 86~97
"아마도, 항상 그래왔듯 모든 일의 처음은 인수봉 발치 야영장의 희미한 랜턴불빛 아래서나 우이동 대폿집의 쪽탁자에서부터 시작되었을 것이다. 로왈링 히말라야의 맹주 가우리상카 서벽에 관한 이야기가 우이동패들의 입에서 술안주로 오르기 시작한 건 2년 전 무렵. 흔하지 않은 새로운 대상지에 솔깃한 나는 순전한 호기심으로 그 산에 대한 몇 가지 자료를 찾아보았지만, 또 바쁜 일상 속에 흰산에 관한 생각은 곧 잊게 되었다. ... Read More..

Get Hot with Cool Ice Climbing in Korea
10 Magazine, February 2009, pp. 22~25

Along with Peter Jensen, the two men rushed in to fill the void in a growing niche market here - rock climbing. IGK's winter tours focus on ice climbing; from spring to fall, it's rock climbing. "The company's purpose is to introduce people, and especially foreigners, to the beauty and adventure of Korea's outdoors. The outdoors is a huge playground waiting for you," Park added. They give tours once or twice a month, while guided climbs... Read More..
