On the 26th of October 1998, after fifteen days on El Capitan, the 29 year-old Slovenian Tomaz Humar completed Reticent Wall (VI, 5.9, A5 850m). Humar is well-known for his successes in the Himalayas, where in 1997 he ascended Nuptse in alpine style together with Janiz Jeglic, and Ama Dablam in the same style in 1996 with Vanja Furlan (winner of the trophy Piolet d'Or).
