Harvest Moon

Rob Frost

Harvest Moon documents a Swiss expedition to climb a new route on 22,650-foot Thalay Sagar in the Garwhal Himalaya of northern India. The filmmaker follows four men—Stephan Siegrist, Denis Burdet, Thomas Senf and Ralph Weber—as they set out to tackle the ominous northwest ridge of the mountain’s 4,600-foot north face and includes interviews with first ascentionist John Thackray (1979), north face first ascentionist Andy LIndblade (1997), and Americans Jay Smith and Kitty Calhoun.
