Purtscheller pioneered climbing without a mountain guide, who in the 19th century did all the route finding and lead climbing. By the end of his life he had recorded climbing over 1,700 mountains. A celebrated climb was the traverse of the Meije together with the Zsigmondy brothers in 1885, which to this date is considered a classic alpine route. He is best known as the first European to ascend Kilimanjaro in 1889, together with the German mountaineer Hans Meyer. After a descent of the Aiguille du Dru with G. Löwenbach and Jakob Oberhollenzer on August 25, 1899, an ice axe broke and the rope team fell into a bergschrund. Purtscheller was injured and he was transferred to a hospital in Geneva and later Bern. After several months of recovery, he contracted pneumonia and died on the approximate date of his planned return home. In a eulogy, the American climber and mountain historian W.A.B. Coolidge called him "the greatest mountaineer who had ever lived".[1] References1. ^Fritz Schmitt, Ludwig Purtscheller, Bergsteiger, July 1984 {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Purtscheller, Ludwig}}{{Austria-sport-bio-stub}}{{climbingbio-stub}} 5 : 1849 births|1900 deaths|19th-century Austrian people|Austrian mountain climbers|People from Innsbruck |
