Today's episode is part two of the recap of this climbing season. Trigger warnings at the 25 minute mark. Included in this episode are most of the records for this season, some cool moments, safety issues, and the Mt. Everest weather. Sometimes, you also have to talk about the unpleasant stuff too, and I talk about the New York Times article that made allegations against Nirmal Purja, ropegate and some of his other decisions made this climbing season at Everest. Next week's episode will be about David Brashears and his contribution to the mountaineering community and Mt. Everest. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pauline-reynolds-nuttall/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pauline-reynolds-nuttall/support

I start the recap of the Spring 2024 climbing season on Mt. Everest. I mention some of the books and documentaries that have come out/ will come out and where you can find Guy Votter's book in the US: Top Of The World Books. I go over some of the numbers including permit number, the total deaths on Everest since 1922, and last year compared to this year. There was a quick review of the policies/ rules that came out this year that probably didn't really change the climbing experience and why the season started late. Next week will be part 2, including #ropegate. Never a dull moment during Everest climbing season adn there will always be a little drama and some surprises. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pauline-reynolds-nuttall/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pauline-reynolds-nuttall/support

Today's episode is a brief update about the 2024 Spring Everest season, where I have been, and what to expect from the next episodes. I have been absent for two months.

There are over 200 dead bodies left on Mt. Everest. Today's episode is about why the bodies are not retrieved and the 10 most "famous" dead bodies on Mt. Everest. The 10 most "famous" dead bodies on Mt. Everest include George Mallory, Marco Siffredi, Green Boots, and Sleeping Beauty. I also talked about how the documentary "Finding Michael" gives us a better idea of why it is so hard to find, identify, and retrieve bodies from Mt. Everest. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pauline-reynolds-nuttall/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pauline-reynolds-nuttall/support

I added another book to the 1996 Everest disaster book list that I missed in the last episode. Today's episode is about the one book and two documentaries about Mt. Everest coming out in 2024. I also discuss what to expect for the overall 2024 season and hopefully, it will be uneventful. It's been 100 years since George Mallory and Andrew "Sandy" Irvine attempted and died on Everest in 1924. It's been 25 years since Conrad Anker and his team discovered George Mallory's body in 1999. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pauline-reynolds-nuttall/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pauline-reynolds-nuttall/support

Today's topic is the best books about the 1996 Everest disaster. Each one is it's one different perspective. Recently I listened to an interview with Sandy Hill (Hill-Pittman), which reminded me that every single person on the mountain that year had their own very unique experience. Though some of the authors are very critical of the other climbers, some of these books are about the very personal stories of the individual climbers.

Update on the tragedies on Shishapangma and in Israel. The tragedy in Israel has affected the Israeli climbers Aviad Sido and Nadav Ben Yehuda. Today's episode is an opinion piece. Based on what has been happening over the last few years. it seems that those who are looking for records are putting themselves and others at risk because they are prioritizing records over safety. I give 2 examples, including last week's deaths on Shish of the American women Gina Rzucidlo and Anna Gutu.

It's a bit of a mixed bag, either personal questions to me or my opinions on several topics.

Today's episode (sorry it's late) is about the top ten historical events and expeditions that have shaped Mt. Everest. As I was going through all the seasons, I realized that these events and expeditions have really shaped the current climbing culture on the mountain. As I go in chronological order, I can see how previous years have changed the climbing in the years following the expedition or event. I discuss the following years: 1924, 1953, 1996, 2006, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2019, 2020 and 2023. If you are a listener experiencing Seasonal Affective Disorder, please seek help.

Today's interview was with Samina Baig, the first Pakistani woman to summit Mt. Everest and the first Pakistani woman to summit the 7 Summits. This episode was joyful. We talk about the barriers to mountaineering, her journey to climbing Mt. Everest, and her accomplishments since then. We also talk about her new travel company and the work that she and her brother do towards getting youth into the outdoors. Samina talks about how K2 was her hardest peak and how Denali was challenging, and what she plans on doing next.

Though I covered this before, I wanted to go back and focus on why people died and how it could be prevented. At the time, 1996 was the deadliest year with the most fatal day and the deadliest season. 15 people died that year, 12 of them during the Spring season. I also talk about how safety has improved since then and how deaths on Everest have a spiderweb effect. I covered more in-depth in 2022 the actual detailed story of all of the deaths and the individuals.

Today's episode is an interview with Guy Cotter, CEO of adventure consultants who has been mountaineering and guiding for over 3 decades. We talk about him starting out as a mountaineer, becoming a guide, and then becoming the CEO of Adventure Consultants. We talk about how mountaineering has changed, the good and the ugly on Everest, and his book coming out in the fall: "Everest Mountain Guide: The Remarkable Story of a Kiwi Mountaineer". We also talk about Rob Hall. One of my favorite parts about this interview is Guy's tenacity and how he deals with the ups and downs, especially when it comes to the death of his mentors and COVID.

In 1992, Skip Horner became the first mountain guide to lead a client to the top of all of the 7 Summits. He was one of the pioneers of commercial guiding. Skip and I talk about both of his Everest expeditions, commercial guiding then and now, and much more. This is Skip's 50th year of being a guide. He has slowed down a bit but still leads a few expeditions per year. My favorite part of the episode is the last 15 minutes when Skip talks about climbing with Rob Hall and calls me out when we talk about death.

There are over 200 dead bodies on Mount Everest and over 300 people have died on the mountain. In the documentary "Finding Michael", Spencer Matthews goes to search for his brother with a team led by Nimsdai (Nims Purja). This documentary is a beautiful tribute to Michael Matthews who dies in 1999 on Mt Everest. It opens up an honest discussion about how these deaths affect families. It also gives people a better understanding of why so many dead bodies are left on Everest. Next week's episode will be an interview with Alan Arnette!

Today's interview is with the German mountaineer Jost Kobusch. He first became "famous" when his video of the 2015 avalanche at Everest Base Camp went viral. He has a unique perspective about mountaineering and his journey differs from most. Jost's mountaineering style is without fixed ropes, oxygen, or Sherpa support and his reason behind it is almost poetic.

Some of the things mentioned in the interview are that the record doesn't matter, why he still has all of his fingers and toes after climbing for 25 years, why he climbs, and some of the problems on Sagarmatha (Mt. Everest). I may or may not have been finally convinced to climb Kilimanjaro.

This episode summarizes the deaths and injuries on Mt. Everest this season with 17 total deaths. I interview Aviad Sado, a fellow Israeli, and we talk about why he chose to summit Mt. Everest. To me, Israeli mountaineers are like the Jamaican bobsled team. He is the youngest Israeli to summit and the eighth Israeli. Aviad is a former Israeli military commando and a vegan. He lost one of his teammates this year on Everest and we talk about his frostbite injuries. Next week's episode is an interview with Adrian Ballinger from Alpenglow Expeditions.

Everest with an estimated number of 17 possible deaths. During the Spring 2023 season, there were a record number of permits. And as usual, there were problems with trash, crowding, and even theft.

He lost his legs from an IED while he was in the Gurkha unit in Afghanistan. Updates - "Finding Michael" is coming out March 3 on Disney Plus UK/ Europe. Tibet will officially remain closed to foreign climbers. The ice doctors will be heading out to Everest soon. During our interview, Hari and I talk about his growing up in Nepal, joining the Gurkhas and how he lost his legs. He had a very dark period after losing his legs. He was given the opportunity to go skydiving and this jump started his passion for climbing when he realized that he could do anything that someone with two legs could. In 2022, he trekked to base camp and this year he will be summitting Mt. Everest.
