Fellow Mountaineers        
 
This letter is to inform you The Alpine Club wishes to Commend you all for your attempt to rescue Inaki Ochoa de Olza on Annapurna in May 2008.
 
The "Spirit of Mountaineering" Initiative was announced by British mountaineer Doug Scott at the 150 year anniversary of the Alpine Club at Zermatt in 2007.

 
The aim of this Initiative is to acknowledge and thank persons who "In the true Spirit
of Mountaineering have shown unselfish devotion to help a fellow
climber endangered in mountains, and in doing this have sacrificed
their own objective or put their personal safety at risk".

 
Through
this Initiative the Alpine Club wish to promote awareness of the
importance of good behaviour in mountains as set out in the UIAA Tyrol
Declaration.

 
We propose to announce these Commendations at the Piolets d'Or ceremony in Chamonix this April.

For The Alpine Club
 
Frank Cannings
