What's all the fuss and noise about UTMB? Is it really as good as it says on the tin? Well in our humble opinion….HELL YEAH! This week we reminisce on our UTMB experience, the atmosphere, the route, the climbs, the crowds and what we still rate as one of our absolute running highlights.

University of Canterbury researchers have been working with the New Zealand Alpine Club and Te Rūnanga o Arowhenua to address the issue of how mountaineers dispose of their waste when on Aoraki Mount Cook.

"Talking to Adrian Hayes is an adventure in itself " says Phil Blizzard with this episode taking you, via your "Airpods'  from the comfort of your 'zone' to the frozen, almost,  vertical rock face close to the 8,586m summit of Kanchenjunga in the Himalayas.Adrian Hayes is heading back to the Himalayan 8000m giants with an expedition to attempt the majestic Kanchenjunga - the little known, 3rd highest mountain in the world, located on the Eastern Nepal and Indian border.  We start by talking about the preparations  for the expedition and the challenges to be faced.In this conversational journey  we reflect on his previous major expeditions and his collection of world records - including the Three Poles Challenge. Climbing Mount Everest and walking to both the North & South Poles!  Which, when talking about bringing up a teenage daughter he said "was more demanding than summiting  Everest and reaching the two poles "!Our common connection with the Middle East comes into the conversation - with my memories of him dragging car tyres across the beaches of Dubai for some reason or other! How the UAE and the delightful Oman offers so much to adventurers. Plus recollections of 'The Soldier of Arabia - David Neild'  and so much more, including the special affiliation Adrian has with the Gurkha regiment.Adrian also talks about his other life  - that as a professional speaker - human development and what adventuring brings to that table, and vice versa. Finally a concluding piece which Adrian Hayes has provided about the forthcoming expedition.‘Kanch' rises to a height of 8,586 m (28,169 ft); is huge, remote, steep and technical, with a near vertical rock face near the summit and, above all, the longest summit push of any 8000 m mountain on Earth. The fact that there are only approx. 25 climbers attempting it this year, compared to the hundreds that will shortly be on Everest, testimony to it being one of the least climbed 8000ers. It has always held a special place with me, being located in my former Gurkha regiment's recruiting heartlands of Eastern Nepal; having first seen it in the early 90s on a welfare trek whilst serving in the Brigade; and long having ambitions to climb it. On the trek in I will be visiting 7th Gurkha Rifles pensioners and their families gathered for their annual reunions in the Gurkha Welfare Trust Welfare Centres of Phidim and Taplejung - a role I undertook in 2022 which was one of the most rewarding experiences I have ever had in the country.It's 18 years since I climbed Everest, 10 years since summiting K2 and nine since our aborted attempt on Makalu (the 5th highest mountain in the world). And following last year's return to high altitude mountaineering and our ‘warm up' attempt of the difficult Pumori (7181 m), I have been preparing and planning ever since - the joys, total absorption and complete focus of a major goal!For further information visit www.adrianhayes.com

Max Pearson presents a collection of this week's Witness History episodes focusing on Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world. It's 70 years since Edmund Hillary with Sherpa Tenzing Norgay, became the first people to reach the summit of Everest in 1953. We hear about some of the earliest, tragic attempts to scale the mountain, and from those who've blazed a trail up the slopes for others to follow. Contributors: Peter Hillary - Sir Edmund Hillary's son. Jamling Tenzing Norgay - Tenzing Norgay's son. Bachendri Pal - the first Indian woman to scale Mount Everest. Michael Groom - a survivor of the tragic expedition in 1996 when a storm struck the mountain. Jochen Hemmleb - an original member of the team that discovered George Mallory's remains.

This week's podcast is enjoyable and will get you laughing as Coach Paul Melella interviews Chris about his latest adventure in Argentina.  Chris has been touring the world, climbing high-altitude mountains for six years and countless peaks across the country for the past ten years.  He is always looking for his next adventure, and in the spirit of growth, his altitude and challenges grow as time goes on.  He has climbed notable peaks such as Kilimanjaro, Cotopaxi, Everest Base Camp, and volcanoes in Guatemala; his latest challenge was to climb the highest mountain in the Americas, Aconcagua, at 22830'.  In this podcast, Chris shares with Paul why adventure is such an essential part of his life, why he spends so much time in nature, and is always looking for a taller, more prominent, or farther expedition.  Get ready for an adventurous podcast as Chris and Paul heckle their way through the conversation.  Here are some notable takeaways:* Keeps me humble - it doesn't matter how big or successful we get... we are small compared to the power of nature  * You never genuinely know about life until you experience time in the mountains * Put yourself in situations to challenge yourself and then see your full potential  * Getting outside your comfort zone and not be confined to limits * It allows your mind, body, and spirit to be without limits or ceilings If you are interested in an adventure like Chris has experienced, contact Embark Exploration at https://embarkexplorationco.com .  If you are interested in raising money for Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and experiencing an epic adventure, go to https://cure.lls.org/campaign/climb2cure-landing/c423188.  Whatever you do, be sure to go outside and enjoy nature.   If you enjoyed this podcast, please don't be shy and share it with anyone who would benefit from its content.  Visit empoweredmastery.com for more information, or contact us at info@empoweredmastery.com should you have any questions about Balanced Warrior and Empowered Mastery.

Friends, We have known since the beginning of Udasis that Guru Ji visits areas or individuals who have drifted off the path to righteousness. When someone calls out his name for support, Guru Ji really rushes to them to bless them.Following a brief stay at Manikaran Sahib, Guru Ji and Bhai Mardana Ji travelled in the direction of the Himalayas, particularly Sumer Parbat. Sumer is the name for the highest mountain. See, my friends, in order to spread the word of Ik Onkar and return those who have strayed from the path of the Almighty to the righteous home, just like us, guru ji journeys through difficult circumstances.music: Arms of Heaven by Aakash Gandhi

The average person wants to do great things with their life. They dream of being adventurous, living life without regrets and seeing things no one else has ever seen - but very few actually take action. This week on The Spencer Lodge Podcast, I speak with Kenton Cool - a world-leading high-altitude climber who reached the summit of Mount Everest not once, but 16 times!

It can be hard to think of Everest as unknown anymore. While it's certainly a challenge to climb the world's tallest mountain, someone–with enough time and money–has a good chance of making it to the summit. A potential mountaineer can fly into Kathmandu, travel to a well-stocked base camp, be escorted up a well-trodden route by expert sherpas. There's even Wifi at the peak. The relative ease of climbing Everest is born from almost a century of attempted expeditions up the mountain, to determine how high one could go, and what routes to take. Even the successful expedition of Norgay and Hillary was built on the efforts of those who came before. And the first expeditions, in 1921 and 1922, are the subject of Mick Conefrey's Everest 1922: The Epic Story of the First Attempt on the World's Highest Mountain (Pegasus Books, 2022). Mick tells the story of these very first attempts to climb the mountain–including the difficulties of funding, recruitment, and travel, as well as the climb itself. In this interview, Mick and I talk about the two expeditions to Everest–including its most famous participant, George Mallory–the scientific and mountaineering controversies around it, and what makes climbing Everest different today. Mick Conefrey is an award-winning writer and documentary film maker. He created the landmark BBC series The Race for Everest to mark the sixtieth anniversary of the first ascent. His previous books include The Adventurer's Handbook: Life Lessons from History's Great Explorers (Smithsonian: 2006); Everest 1953: The Epic Story of the First Ascent (Mountaineers Books: 2014), the winner of a Leggimontagna Award; and Ghosts of K2: The Race for the Summit of the World's Most Deadly Mountain (Oneworld Publications: 2015), which won a U.S. National Outdoor Book Award.
