Rondespiret and Other Ascents. In the 1997 AAJ, p. 268, an account may be found of the Norwegian expedition that successfully made the first ascent of the 800-meter Rondespiret (The Ronde Spire, 2427m) via the northeast face (Norwegian Grade 6+ A3+, 21 pitches) from December 23, 1996-January 8, 1997, by Aslak Aastorp, Robert Caspersen, Håkon Stover and Ivar Tollefsen.
