I thought it was pretty good. The quality of the photos is not good, but the photos themselves were fine. I agree with others would be good to have some thoughts and feelings included, rather than a simple progression of action.
- Hinterstoisser traverse > capital 'T' for a named feature
- "the difficult crack" > ditto and ditto for Ice Chimney etc
- "Death bivvy (which can normally sleep 4,) might be full. Though we needn’t have worried about that, the snow build up had buried the ledge" - alternating present and past tense/voice. Many editors would correct this, but personally I like it, so I do it too.
- "5 spare matches, this could go wrong real fast." > Bad comma - a hyphen or even full-stop / new sentence would be better and have more impact.
- musilie > muesli
- "The ice chimney was bear from ice" - growling and furry? Or bare?
- "and without the knowledge that its actually doable, real commitment." > Again, bad comma. You need more of a break to delineate the two parts of the sentence, as the first part is description, the last part your comment.
- "The quartz crack was short…" > Named features get capitals.
- 'bivvy' or 'bivi' - choose one and stick with it.
- "So there I was hanging from one screw my feet in bits after 2 days of kicking my toes…" > Take those two bad commas from above and put them into this sentence instead. It's too run-on.
- "...not have a poco loco!?" > Even overrated fast food businesses get capitals for their name.
