Mountain in Nepal
POPULARITY
Antonina "Tonya" Samoilova (@tonya.samoilova) ) is a record-setting Ukrainian mountaineer and alpinist known for scaling the world's most formidable peaks while raising global awareness for her homeland. She began her high-altitude mountaineering journey relatively recently in 2018, starting with Mount Kilimanjaro, and quickly transformed into one of Ukraine's most prominent endurance athletes. She is the first Ukrainian mountaineer in history to conquer the five highest mountain peaks in the world—Everest, K2, Kangchenjunga, Lhotse, and Makalu, and the first Ukrainian woman to summit Mount Everest three times (2022, 2023, and 2024). In May 2024, she completed a rare double-header by summiting Everest and Lhotse within 24 hours, setting a national speed record for a female climber. During her 2025 ascent of Kangchenjunga—the world's third-highest peak—she survived running out of supplemental air 200 meters from the summit, pushing through 20 harrowing minutes without oxygen at 8,400 meters. Samoilova uses her global platforms and extreme ascents to act as a prominent voice for Ukraine. In 2022, she was the only climber from Ukraine to unfurl her country's flag at the summit of Everest, broadcasting a message to "Stand with Ukraine". In 2023, she made international headlines by capturing the world's first drone footage from the summit of Everest alongside the Ukrainian flag. She frequently uses her expeditions to raise funds for Ukraine's Armed Forces and volunteer medical battalions, often dedicating her dangerous ascents to fallen Ukrainian defenders and her own family serving on the front lines.

Dans son dernier livre, l'écrivaine et journaliste française Virginie Troussier nous invite à un voyage du regard et de la pensée en observant les nuages, présages du temps qui passe et qui s'en vient. Ils sont le visage du vent et de la pluie. Larmes du ciel en suspens, flocons blancs vaporeux ou menaçants… Plus que tout autre élément naturel, les nuages sont une source d'émerveillement et d'inspiration, propices à la contemplation et la rêverie. Les paysans, les marins ou les montagnards les regardent aussi avec une attention décuplée, façonnant une certaine science des nuages. Les météorologues les ont classés, inventoriés : Cirrus, griffes cotonneuses dans le ciel, Stratus ou « étendue » pour désigner les formes allongées ; Cumulus pour qualifier ces amas en paquets ou en balles de coton… Les nuages sont donc des phénomènes précis, amas de vapeur d'eau dans l'atmosphère. Mais avec leurs formes variées, changeantes, leur caractère à la fois singulier et universel, les nuages offrent à toutes et tous des paysages, des horizons infinis, dans lesquels l'autrice férue de mers et de montagnes, Virginie Troussier, nous invite à plonger. Son Petit éloge des nuages, qui vient de paraître en France, a alors des airs de « Petite philosophie des nuages », interrogeant notre liberté de regard dans un monde truffé d'écrans, la place du mouvement et de l'éphémère dans des vies parfois trop rangées, le rôle de la poésie et du rêve, sel de l'existence et de la création littéraire de cette femme libre, adepte de la voile et de la grimpe, habitée par les mots. Après avoir grandi dans les Alpes, Virginie Troussier vit désormais entre Paris et la Bretagne. Et depuis une décennie au moins, elle nous livre des récits sensibles d'alpinisme, de destins sportifs ou de vies maritimes qui interrogent notre rapport intime aux éléments, où la géographie importe et nous emporte, autant que les nuances du ciel… Tout en regardant ce ciel mouvant, Virginie Troussier convoque également dans son livre des destins singuliers : le pharmacien anglais du XVIIIè siècle Luke Howard, « l'homme qui a inventé les nuages », des chasseurs de tornades, des « nimbophiles » réunis en société, des peintres anglais fascinés par les variations du ciel, l'alpiniste Nicolas Jaeger disparu dans les nuages sur la face Sud du Lhotse en 1980, le peintre des alpages Samivel, le philosophe des éléments Gaston Bachelard ou les époux Krafft, volcanologues de renom, en quête de nuages de cendres. Une fois refermé ce petit éloge, on est alors tenté d'aller dehors, s'allonger sur un bout d'herbe ou de sable et lever le nez, pour avoir nous aussi la tête dans les nuages. ► À lire : - Petit éloge des nuages, de Virginie Troussier.

With the 2026 Everest season now officially in the books, Sam and Adrian are back for their fourth and final installment of Everest coverage, with Adrian calling in from Denver where the season's biggest stories have been the talk of the festival floor.Before diving into Everest, Sam and Adrian each share a news story from the week. Adrian touches on the trending trademark lawsuit between outdoor apparel giant Patagonia and Pattie Gonia, the drag persona of environmental activist and outdoor influencer Wyn Wiley, unpacking the nuance on both sides and why two brands with nearly identical values find themselves here. Sam flags two recent search and rescue incidents in the South Lake Tahoe area, which leads to a spirited debate on satellite communicators vs. iPhone satellite messaging — both landing on the same conclusion: redundancy wins.From there, Sam and Adrian cover the following from the 2026 Everest season:- Bartek Ziemski: Story of the Season: No contest for Adrian. The Polish ski mountaineer — a software engineer with no social media — skied Lhotse without oxygen, rested briefly, then summited and skied Everest without oxygen as well, keeping his skis on from top to bottom. Adrian reflects on what it takes physically and mentally to turn around for a second no-oxygen 8,000-meter peak in a single season, and what Bartek's ascents mean for the next generation of Himalayan ski mountaineering.- The Season by the Numbers: A record number of climbers, a record single-day summit of 274 people, roughly five fatalities — and what may be the best no-oxygen season on record with four successful ascents including Bartek, Kristen Harila, and Nirmal Purja. Garrett Madison notched his 16th summit, Kenton Cool his 21st, and Kami Rita Sherpa extended his record to 32.- Aviation: The Season's Most Complicated Story: Drones moving thousands of kilograms of equipment over the Khumbu Icefall represent real progress toward reducing worker trips through the mountain's most dangerous section. But widespread abuse of the helicopter rescue system — with climbers faking medical emergencies to skip the descent — is a growing problem, and Adrian argues the current regulatory framework is failing.- Three Climbers Stranded Above the Icefall: As of recording, two Americans and a Sherpa remain at Camp 2 after the icefall was decommissioned, waiting on a helicopter that weather has so far prevented from reaching them. Adrian weighs in on the decision-making that put them there — and what it says about following the rules of the mountain you're on.- The FKT Question — Karl Egloff and Tyler Andrews: Karl turned around below Camp 4, staying true to his no-oxygen-only philosophy. Tyler eventually summited with oxygen in just under 10 hours. Adrian congratulates Tyler on seeing the full mountain but is direct: oxygen FKTs and no-oxygen FKTs are not the same record, and keeping that distinction clear matters for the athletes still chasing the real one.One more episode is coming.

Tenzing David Sherpa summited three peaks — Everest (8,848m), Lhotse (8,516m) and Nuptse (7,861m) in under five days and thus completed the rare “triple crown” in the same season. A physiotherapist by training, Sherpa is also involved in Nepal's tourism sector. He summited Everest on May 20, 2026 — the day that saw the highest number of climbers reach the world's tallest peak in a single day. Our Nepal correspondent Pratichya Dulal spoke with Sherpa about the achievement, as well as recent climbing conditions and the so-called “traffic jam” on the world's highest mountain.Subscribe to the SBS Nepali podcast here.Disclaimer: We would like to inform you that the opinions expressed in the segment are those of the talents themselves.

Confira no Morning Show desta quinta-feira (28): Uma pesquisa revelou que 71% dos trabalhadores brasileiros não temem ficar desempregados com o fim da escala 6x1. A Proposta de Emenda à Constituição que prevê a diminuição da jornada de trabalho foi aprovada na Câmara dos Deputados na noite desta quarta-feira (27). O Ministério Público de São Paulo, por meio do GAECO, deflagrou a Operação Fluxo Oculto em parceria com a Receita Federal, Agência Nacional do Petróleo, órgãos estaduais e forças policiais nesta quinta-feira (28). A ação é um desdobramento da Operação Carbono Oculto e investiga fraudes, sonegação fiscal e lavagem de dinheiro ligadas ao mercado de combustíveis por organizações criminosas como o Primeiro Comando da Capital (PCC). Segundo os investigadores, os principais alvos são seis fintechs identificadas durante as apurações e um esquema de adulteração de combustíveis. O presidente do Senado Davi Alcolumbre (União) sinalizou a interlocutores que não deve criar obstáculos para a votação da Proposta de Emenda à Constituição que prevê o fim da escala 6x1. A PEC foi aprovada na Câmara dos Deputados nesta quarta-feira (27) e segue para análise dos senadores nas próximas semanas. Alcolumbre leva em consideração que a pauta tem grande apelo popular, ainda mais em período eleitoral. Em entrevista exclusiva à Jovem Pan nesta quarta-feira (27), o ex-governador de Goiás e pré-candidato à Presidência da República Ronaldo Caiado (PSD) desmentiu a formação de uma chapa com Romeu Zema (NOVO). Apesar da negativa, Caiado defendeu a união da centro-direita nas eleições e disse ser um “homem calejado” e pronto para governar o Brasil. A pesquisa eleitoral mais recente Meio/Ideia aponta que o presidente Lula (PT) é desaprovado por 51,4% e aprovado por 46,6%, mas ainda aparece à frente do senador Flávio Bolsonaro (PL) em um eventual segundo turno. O presidente Lula (PT) e o prefeito do Recife e presidente nacional do PSB, João Campos (PSB), devem se reunir nos próximos dias para definir estratégias nos maiores colégios eleitorais do País, São Paulo e Minas Gerais. A aliança entre os dois partidos, que ocupam a presidência e a vice-presidência, deve lançar candidaturas mistas em todo o Brasil nestas eleições, inclusive para o governo de MG e o Senado de SP. A Justiça de São Paulo suspendeu, através de liminar, o projeto Boulevard São João, conhecido como “Times Square” paulistana, que previa a instalação de grandes painéis de LED no cruzamento das avenidas São João e Ipiranga, no centro da capital. A decisão aponta que a proposta poderia funcionar como um mecanismo indireto para flexibilizar as restrições da Lei Cidade Limpa, mesmo sendo apresentada como um projeto de requalificação urbana. Com a aprovação da Proposta de Emenda à Constituição que prevê o fim da escala 6x1 na Câmara dos Deputados nesta quarta-feira (28), representantes de entidades patronais e federações de comércio estaduais manifestaram preocupação com a economia brasileira. O temor é que o projeto, que é feito para melhorar a vida do trabalhador, acabe causando cortes em postos de trabalho e redução de receita em empresas. A Polícia Civil do Distrito Federal deflagrou nesta quinta-feira (28) a Operação Crédito Corrompido, que investiga gerentes do Banco de Brasília (BRB) por fraudes em empréstimos e crimes contra a administração pública. Documentos falsos eram enviados às agências e contratos fraudulentos eram aprovados por funcionários, que retiravam parte dos valores como pagamento. O alpinista curitibano Gustavo Cordoni, de 23 anos, que escalou o monte Everest e o monte Lhotse em menos de 24 horas, primeiro sul-americano a conquistar o feito, concede entrevista ao Morning Show. Essas e outras notícias você confere no Morning Show.
This week on the How to Thrive podcast, Claire and Helen are joined by Bonita Norris, mountaineer, keynote speaker, and the youngest British woman to reach the summit of Everest. She was 22 years old, had never climbed a mountain before university, and the whole thing started with a hungover phone call.Bonita talks candidly about making a mistake on her descent and carrying it for years, about returning to the Himalayas to climb Lhotse (the world's fourth highest peak) and about the moment she handed her record to the next generation.Claire, Helen and Bonita discuss the team it takes to get one person to the top of the world, the surprising parallels between mountaineering and corporate life, and the power of a debrief.Find out more about Bonita: www.bonita-norris.comWith thanks to our sponsors for this episode:Lewis Silkin: https://www.lewissilkin.comLewis Silkin is a full-service law firm that works closely with organisations to help protect and enhance what matters most.

Former Royal Marine commando Tim Howell joins the MTNTOUGH Podcast to share his extraordinary journey from guiding clients through Big 5 territory in South Africa at 18, to earning his place in one of the world's toughest military units, and now pushing the absolute limits as an elite wingsuit BASE jumper and mountain athlete. Tim breaks down how he views and conquers fear, the power of calculated risk versus reckless adrenaline, attention to detail, reserves in the tank, and why discomfort builds unbreakable mental toughness. From combat deployments and high-altitude expeditions to first BASE jumps and record attempts (including multiple tries on Lhotse), he reveals the mindset that separates survival from thriving at the edge of human performance. A raw, inspiring conversation for hunters, athletes, fathers, and any man ready to break fear, live with purpose, and stay dangerous in the present moment.Join Dustin Diefenderfer, Founder of MTNTOUGH Fitness Lab and creator of the MTNTOUGH+ Fitness App in the top podcast for Mental Toughness and Mindset.

In Ep.277 of the STA Clinician Podcast, host Matt Phillips is joined by special guest Tim Allardyce, founder of Rehab My Patient, who talks about how integration of AI into MSK rehab is revolutionising MSK Rehabilitation. The discussion looks at how Artificial Intelligence can support time-saving prescription, age & context-appropriate plans, data privacy & safety, and real clinic use-cases (note-taking, complaints, contracts). Tim explains how AI should support - not replace - clinicians, how it really doesn't need to be that expensive in 2026, using real examples from the exciting AI developments in ‘Rehab My Patient' exercise prescription software. Tim also talks about his trip starting April 10th to summit Island Peak (6,189m), Mount Everest (8,848m) and Lhotse (8,851m), to raise money for The Osteopathic Foundation, St. Dunstan's Education Group, The Sherpas, and Guy's & St. Thomas' Charity.

Kad sporta zinātniece, fizioloģe un asociētā profesore Līga Plakane stāsta par 8000 metru augstumu, par alpīnistu, kuru viena glāba 7500 metru augstumā, vai 170 kilometru skrējienu apkārt Monblānam, viņa stāsta par savu robežu iepazīšanu.Tā ir saruna par spēju saprast savu ķermeni robežsituācijās - kā ķermenis signalizē, ka ir par daudz un kad vēl vari. Kā atjaunošanās var izrādīties svarīgāka par kārtējo treniņu. Kāpēc tas, kas garšo ikdienā, kalnos izraisa pretestību.Līga ir zinātniece, kas teoriju pilnveido praksē – no Siguldas trepēm līdz Himalaju virsotnēm. Viņa ir mamma, kas bērnus ņēma līdzi uz kalniem. Viņa ir pirmā Baltijas sieviete, kas uzkāpa 8000-nieka virsotnē bez skābekļa un bez ārēja atbalsta.Vērtīgākais šajā sarunā ir Līgas spēja izskaidrot, kā ķermenis strādā robežsituācijās. Kāpēc šokolāde kalnos negaršo, bet kefīrs ir glābiņš pēc treniņa. Kāpēc zarnas sāp, kad skrien, bet ne, kad slēpo. Kā atpazīt atšķirību starp "vēl varu" un "jau par daudz".

La masturbación mental es el proceso de elevar artificialmente los niveles de dopamina en tu cerebro cuando le cuentas a los demás tus metas, tus planes y cómo quieres cambiar… pero sin hacer nunca nada al respecto.En este episodio 890, con la musicalización de West & Zander y su canción Lhotse.Este episodio 890 es presentado por ETC CORP, tu agencia internacional con el programa de intercambio con el cual puedes migrar si tienes entre 18 y 56 años.

Hoje eu recebo duas mulheres com histórias de vida tão distintas quanto impressionantes. As duas tiveram contato com os esportes na infância, mas nada que as envolvesse muito além das aulas de educação física, natação ou ginástica artística. Até que, um dia, os pais de uma delas lhe fizeram um convite inusitado: caminhar com eles até o acampamento base do Everest. Com 15 anos, sem ter muita noção da aventura, ela aceitou. Durante a caminhada, conheceu uma escaladora e se encantou com suas histórias. Ali nasceu o desejo de se aprofundar no montanhismo e um dia alcançar o cume da maior montanha do mundo. Seus pais embarcaram na ideia e, juntos, deram início ao projeto de escalar os sete cumes mais altos de cada continente. Um ano depois, ela se tornaria a brasileira mais jovem a subir o Kilimanjaro e, nos anos seguintes, ao lado do pai, encarou outras quatro montanhas até chegar ao topo do Everest, em 2018, como a brasileira mais jovem a conquistar esse feito. Nesse caminho, também descobriu outra paixão: a dança, que se tornaria uma parte fundamental da sua vida. Minha outra convidada buscou as trilhas como uma forma de aliviar o estresse e a ansiedade que vieram com a sua ascensão profissional. Sentiu os benefícios e, pouco a pouco, foi se aventurando mais, até participar também da caminhada até o acampamento base do Everest. A experiência foi transformadora e despertou nela a vontade de ir além. Em um curso de escalada em rocha, conheceu um montanhista experiente que, anos depois, se tornaria seu marido. Juntos, criaram um ousado desafio: escalar o Everest e o Lhotse em menos de 24 horas. Dois anos de preparação culminaram na realização do projeto e em dois recordes — tornaram-se o primeiro casal a conquistar esse feito e ela, a primeira mulher sul-americana. Nenhuma das duas veio de uma família de montanhistas ou de um ambiente onde o alpinismo fosse algo comum. Romperam barreiras como o medo, o preconceito e abriram espaço num cenário historicamente masculino. São exemplos claros de como paixão, foco e uma visão ampliada de mundo podem transformar vidas. Este ano, elas se uniram em um projeto inédito. Junto com as montanhistas Daniela Furusawa e Vanessa de Oliveira, farão o trekking e a escalada do Himlung Himal, no Nepal, com 7.126 metros de altitude. O diferencial: toda a equipe será formada por mulheres - guias, carregadoras e equipe de cozinha. Comigo aqui a artista do movimento, fotógrafa, montanhista, graduada em Dança pela Unicamp, que equilibra projetos artísticos e pesquisas com a coordenação de festivais e workshops internacionais, a joseense Ayesha Melo Zangaro; e a engenheira eletricista, com especialização em Gestão e Estratégia de Empresas pela Unicamp, MBA em Finanças Corporativas e Finanças Pessoais, montanhista e planejadora financeira, a guaxupeana Olívia Bonfim Melo.

What does it take to ski alone for 51 days across one of the most unforgiving yet breathtaking terrains on Earth?In this powerful episode, we sit down with Mr. Satish Gogineni, the first Indian to ski unguided and unassisted to the South Pole. Over 51 solitary days on the Antarctic ice, Satish pulled his sled through freezing winds, cooked every meal himself, and found companionship in the strangest places—his harness, his socks, even the silence.As he opens up about the surreal beauty, the solitude that he often enjoyed, and the mental resilience required for such a feat, Satish takes us deep into what it means to embrace true stillness. He describes the surprising sadness he felt on reaching the South Pole—the goal he had chased for years—because it also meant the end of an experience that felt absolutely perfect.Beyond Antarctica, Satish is a mountaineering legend, having summited Everest, Lhotse, Annapurna, and more—often as the fastest Indian to do so. But it's his reflective honesty and quiet strength that makes this conversation unforgettable.Tune in for stories of survival, triumph, and the kind of adventure that changes you forever.A trigger warning: This episode contains discussions around mental health, anxiety and suicide. So I suggest that you - my gentle listener is mindful of your own mental health and that you take breaks if needed.

This week, Kenton sits down to talk to Jay Whiting at Everest Base Camp. Jay is not a professional climber or a professional athlete - he is a full-time solicitor in London - yet when this episode was recorded, he was preparing to take on an enormous Himalayan challenge. Jay talks to Kenton about his dreams of achieving the Everest Triple Crown this year - climbing Everest, Lhotse and Nuptse in one season. Only two people have ever done this to date - our host Kenton, and another professional mountaineer, Garrett Madison. Jay lives in Essex, which is not well-known for its mountainous terrain, and has spent hours and hours on a stair-master in training. Listen now to find out how Jay got on and if you find his story inspiring, please consider donating to his chosen charity, LandAid.

Garrett Madison is considered to be one of America's premier Everest guides. In addition to leading nearly 100 clients to the summit of Mt. Everest, Garrett has made a lasting impact on the world of expedition climbing in the Himalaya and Karakoram, with notable firsts including the first guided climbs of K2 and guided linkups of Everest and Lhotse. Prior to departing for the 2025 Everest season, Garrett joined Sam and Adrian on episode 26 of the Duffel Shuffle Podcast. Garrett shares his journey to becoming a guide, and the incredible opportunities he's had throughout his career. - Garrett's initial interest in becoming a guide started on Mt. Rainier, where he got his start in the profession through hundreds of ascents in his early years as a guide. - Garrett shares his experience with guide certification, and how his career has followed a path in which formal training/certification has not been necessary. - Garrett talks about what he's seen change in the industry, and how he's focused on mitigating the negative impacts around the increase in number of climbers each season.

Send us a textChristopher Fisher's journey from Texas football fields to the highest Himalayan peaks represents one of the most remarkable transitions in mountain sports. In this candid, wide-ranging conversation, Chris reveals how his greatest "failure" – dropping out of Navy SEAL training – became the catalyst that ultimately propelled him toward extraordinary achievement.With disarming honesty, Chris takes us through pivotal moments that shaped his meteoric rise in the mountain world. From setting the MaxVert Challenge record with 400,000 vertical feet in a month to completing all of Colorado's 14,000+ foot peaks in winter conditions, his accomplishments defy conventional limits. The harrowing details of his Winter 14ers project – navigating bulletproof ice, triggering strategic avalanches, and making life-or-death decisions solo in remote backcountry – illustrate both the dangers and the profound rewards of high-consequence mountaineering.The conversation shifts to Chris's evolution in the Himalaya, including his unorthodox "fast and light" summit of Manaslu (the world's eighth highest peak) wearing just a sun hoodie and windbreaker at 26,800 feet. His partnership with elite athlete Tyler Andrews has helped redefine what's possible in high-altitude mountaineering, challenging traditional approaches to acclimatization and equipment.Perhaps most valuable is Chris's transparent look at the realities behind the Instagram-worthy lifestyle. He discusses the financial struggles of professional mountain athletics, the support systems that make these pursuits possible, and his philosophy that these grand adventures compress "multiple lifetimes" of human experience into compressed timeframes. Looking forward, he shares ambitious plans including a speed attempt on Lhotse and a project to climb all 106 six-thousand-meter peaks in the Andes – a feat never before accomplished.What's your next impossible goal?

Benny Lieber is an accomplished climber and is also described by Kenton as 'the next generation of high-altitude mountain guides'. Benny and Kenton met at Everest Base Camp earlier this year and hit it off immediately with Kenton feeding off Benny's unquenchable energy. Benny is a product developer by trade, but gave it up for a life in the mountains back in 2016. He moved to Alaska and lived for several years in his car before being able to afford an apartment, but he has now found his niche and is a full-time mountain guide. He has many summits to his name including Everest, Lhotse, K2, Manaslu and Vinson and we are certain there are more to come. Kenton and Benny discuss the changing world of mountain guiding, they compare stories of different mountains, and Benny describes the luxury of absolute wilderness in Alaska.

Part 3 of Everyday Everest, my new Podcast series, drops today with chapters 8, 9 and 10. I'll continue my annual coverage as usual. Based on my 2020 Virtual Everest series, Everyday Everest follows a fictional team of nine climbers and their personal Sherpas from leaving home to trekking to base camp, acclimatizing, and finally, on their summit push, returning home. I'll have a twenty-minute episode a few times weekly for the next two months. In Part 3, our protagonist, Harper, sees Everest from the Everest View Hotel just above Namache Bazaar: "Harper stopped. They all stopped, quietly letting their eyes trace the Khumbu Triple Crown: Everest, Lhotse, and Nuptse—two of the fourteen highest mountains on the planet. The signature white plume flowed off the summit of Everest like a bride's long wedding gown train. Mother Goddess of the Earth never looked more lovely.

En esta entrega especial, exploraré junto con ustedes historias inspiradoras de individuos que han desafiado los límites y transformado sus vidas de maneras extraordinarias. Desde el mundo de las habilidades blandas y el liderazgo hasta las finanzas, la manifestación y el asombroso circo del Cirque du Soleil, nuestro episodio de hoy está lleno de experiencias emocionantes y valiosas lecciones de vida:
L'année 2023 s'achève aujourd'hui. L'occasion pour moi de vous offrir une rétrospective de 8 épisodes diffusés au cours de l'année. Ces épisodes m'ont marqué pour des raisons différentes mais ils ont en commun de m'avoir énormément inspirés. Julia Virat (épisode 24) a fait de son hypersensibilité une force qui lui a permis de devenir une des rares femmes guide de haute montagne, de parvenir à gravir El Capitan en solo et de devenir navigatrice. Romain Courcier (épisode 25), ancien opérateur du 1er RPIMA, a puisé en lui et dans l'amour de ses proches la force nécessaire pour survivre à son incarcération injustifiée dans des geôles dominicaines. Il a refusé une libération par le suicide et, assoiffé de justice, a combattu jusqu'à retrouver sa vraie liberté. Atteint de la maladie de Fanconi, Christophe Bichet (épisode 26) a déjoué les pronostics des médecins qui avait annoncé qu'il ne verrait pas l'âge adulte. Non seulement il l'a atteint, mais il a fondé une famille et est devenu l'un des meilleurs escaladeurs français. Cyrille Chaboune (épisode 28), opérateur du CPA 10, a perdu ses deux jambes en combattant Daech en Irak. Il aurait pu plonger dans la dépression et le renoncement mais sa force morale lui a permis de choisir le mouvement et, notamment, de préparer les JO de 2024 au sein de l'équipe de France de volleyball assis. Orianne Aymard (épisode 29) a failli perde la vie lors d'un accident cérébral. Cette expérience la conduira à enchaîner les exploits comme l'ascension du Lhotse puis de l'Everest en mai 2023. Lors d'une opération en Afghanistan, Ephraim Mattos (épisode 30) - alors opérateur au sein des Navy Seals – se trouve contraint de mettre en joue deux petites filles portant des sacs explosifs. Heureusement il n'aura pas à appuyer sur la détente. Cette expérience lui révélera sa vocation, celle de protéger et sauver les civils en zones de guerre au travers de son organisation « Stronghold rescue and relief ». Après une longue carrière d'infirmier au sein des forces spéciales, Adrien Jimenez (épisode 31) devient expert en psychologie positive, méditation de pleine conscience et cohérence cardiaque. Son témoignage éclairé révèle comment ces pratiques peuvent alimenter la résilience. Et last but not least, Loïc Blanchard (épisode 32) est un modèle d'énergie et d'inspiration au travers de son désormais célèbre podcast "Les Frappés".Quel bonheur de recevoir et de partager ces témoignages riches d'enseignements et de valeurs morales. Je sais que vous vous en nourrissez autant que moi et je m'en réjouis. Cela me donne la force et l'envie de continuer cette magnifique aventure. Merci pour votre fidélité et votre soutien.

Norwegian Kristin Harila, 37, Tenjen (Lama) Sherpa summited all fourteen 8000ers in three months and 1 day (92 days.) The first was Shishapangma on April 26, 2023, and the last K2 on July 27, 2023. In 2022, Harila summited twelve of the fourteen, but China refused them entry into Tibet to attempt Shishapangma and Cho Oyu thus, she returned this year to complete her project. She is no stranger to mountaineering. In 2021, she became the fastest woman to climb Everest and Lhotse in a record 12 hours. The 36-year-old is from Vadso/Norway and is a former cross-country skier. Today, she claims her profession as a runner, skier and former mountaineer as she announced she is retiring from climbing with the end of this project. While she came to mountaineering late, she's summited twenty-eight 8000-meter peaks since her first, Everest, in 2021 and made a name for herself with several records, including: Fastest person, together with Sherpa Lama overall, to True summit all 14 peaks over 8000m in 3 months and 1 day (July 27th, 2023) Fastest person overall to summit the five highest mountains in the world in 69 days, Everest, K2, Kanchenjunga, Lhotse, Makalu. Fastest woman to climb Mount Everest, 8848 and Mount Lhotse, 8516, in less than 8 hours on May 23rd, 2023. The previous record for reaching the true summits of the 8000ers was five years and four months by Nirmal Purja Pun Magar. Both climbers have been criticized by some in the climbing community for climbing with too many Sherpas, using supplemental oxygen and using helicopters to fly from mountain to mountain. Harila's journey was not with controversy. They included switching teams and Sherpas from 2022 to 2023, using helicopters to fly Sherpas to Camp 2 on Manaslu, and the one that caught global attention when a High Altitude Porter, Muhammad Hassan, not climbing with her team died on K2. Her team gave aid, but he died. A video taken hours later showed other climbers, not Harila's team stepping over the dead body on the way to the summit. Harila was widely criticized for his death, yet her team did everything to save his life. The Pakistani government investigated the incident and posted a detailed report clearing Harila's team of any wrongdoing and gave her photographer, Gabriel Tarso, an “appreciation letter” for his effort to save a life that night. We explore all of these controversies in detail in this podcast. This is the full report for download: Muhammad Hussain's Death on K2 and Kristin's report on her website. A GoFundMe account is open for donations to support Mr. Hassan's family. Climb On!AlanMemories are Everything --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/alan-arnette1/support

Today, Billi Bierling is a renowned mountaineer. However, it wasn't always like that; in fact when she was growing up she almost felt slightly oppressed by the snowy peaks surrounding her hometown in Germany. So what changed? Simple. A trip to Nepal in 1998, where she fell in love with the mountains and started high-altitude climbing. Since then, she has scaled six of the 14 8,000m-peaks, namely Mount Everest, Lhotse, Makalu, Cho Oyu, Manaslu (fore summit) and Broad Peak – the latter three she summited without the help of supplemental oxygen. In 2004, Billi started assisting the late Elizabeth Hawley with her work documenting expeditions to the Nepal Himalayas. Together with a team, Billi continues to interview expedition leaders for Liz Hawley's archive, which is now called 'The Himalayan Database'. When she is not gallivanting around the high Himalayas or chasing expeditions in Kathmandu, Billi works for Swiss Humanitarian Aid as a communications expert, writes mountaineering articles for German and English-speaking magazines, translates or writes books and leads mountain treks and expeditions in Nepal and around the world. In short, she's a busy person, which makes the time she spent with Kenton recording this podcast all the more valuable. - Sponsors - @lasportivauk @petzl_official @Arcteryxuk @landrover @lyonequipment @crudecoffeeroasters @evileye.eyewear @reality.maps @incoolcompany @bremontwatches @scallop.offical ... - Supporters - @panorama_lodge_namche @mission.uk @thecoolconversations @vidrate @Everesttoday #kentoncool #coolconversations #podcast #podcastersofinstagram #getitdone #wereinittogether #adventure #adventures #mountain #mountains #mountaineer #mountaineers #nepal #visitnepal

Lhotse Merriam Hawk's huge role in organizing the sport of big mountain skiing and beyond cannot be ignored or understated. As the Vice President of the International Freeskiers Association, an organization she helped co-found with Shane McConkey, she was a 1-woman band creating the infrastructure for the future of ski contests outside of what fell under FIS control. And go figure, this year, the crown jewel of big mountain freeride competitions, FIS, purchased the Freeride World Tour. Lhotse helps break down what this means and shares some stories about Shane McConkey, Seth Morrison, Tony Hawk, and more.

Climbing the tallest mountains in the world, overcoming a colleague's death, and fighting forward with climbing legend Tamara Lunger. Tamara Lunger Is a dreamer in love with the mountains“ Bio Tamara Lunger “Every moment spent in the mountains makes me more aware of who I am and more thankful to life.” Since she was a child, she has practiced a lot of different sports, even athletics - she was twice vice Italian national champion -, but her true passion for the mountains remained untouched! This is why, in 2002, she started with ski mountaineering racing. She became a member of the Italian National Team and won many important races: twice Italian National Champion in 2006 and 2008, vice champion in 2007, she won the Pierra Menta in 2007 and 2008 and achieved the World Champion title on the long distance in 2008. Born in Bozen in 1986, she is the daughter of a famous Italian ski mountaineer, and has lived all her life in the mountains. This is probably why it was inevitable that the mountains went onto have such a strong influence in her life, becoming her passion. In 2014 she reached the summit of K2 becoming the second Italian woman to do so. After the ski mountaineering experience she was looking for new, extreme challenges in the high mountains. Since she was 14 years old, she dreamt of climbing an 8000m peak and through the years she always had had a certain idea of how she would have felt being there. And then in 2009, her first big mountaineering experience in Nepal, she could say that her expectations were satisfied. Since this first experience, things are clear to Tamara: “this is the life I want, and nothing else!” Achievements Sky Mountaineering Races since 2003: 2 times Italian Champion 2008 - World Champion (under 23) 2 times winner of Pierra Menta (FRA) High Altitude Mountaineering since 2009: 2009 - Island Peak (6189 m) 2010 - youngest woman on Lhotse (23 years old) with oxygen 2010 - Cho Oyu (8210 m) no summit 2011 - 2012 - 2012 - 2013 - 2012 - 2014 - 2015 - 2016 - Khan Tengri (7010 m) Muztgah Ata (7546 m) Broad Peak (8047 m) no summit Pik Lenin (7134 m) Broad Peak (8047 m) no summit K2 (8611 m) without oxygen Manaslu Winter Expedition with Simone Moro (without success) Nanga Parbat Winter Expedition with Simone Moro (stopped 70 m below the summit). It was the first time a woman was above 8000m in first winter ascent on a 8000m peak. 2017 - 2018 - 2019/2020 - Gasherbrum Winterexpedition with Simone Moro (no success due to crevasse accident) 2020/2021- K2 Winterexpedition with Alex Gavan/ JP Mohr. I reached camp3 (7300m) and we lost 5 friends (also JP Mohr). Ultra Trail Running Races since 2013: 2013 2° place at the Transalpinerun with Annemarie Gross Kanchenjunga Skylie Expedition with Simone Moro (no success) Pik Pobeda, Siberia, with Simone Moro. First Winter ascent. 2014 1° place at the Transalpinerun with Annemarie Gross 2015 1° place at the Südtirol Ultrarace (team) Special Project 2013 - 2020 - 2021 - 2021 - „The great crossing“ - ski mountaineering traverse in Pakistan with the summit of 2 unclimbed & nameless peaks (6345 m & 6489 m) „Tamara Tour Italia“ - A multi sport road trip (mountaineering, climbing, running, biking, paragliding, kayaking). I traveled all over Italy with the camper van, climbing the highest peak of every region. „Climbing for a reason“ - social project in northern Pakistan, Shigar Valley. We reached to climb muslim girls from 5 to 17 years. Furthermore we built an artificial climbing wall and set up a climbing spot with 19 routes on the rocks of Shigar Fort. „Tamara Tour Spain“ - A multi sport road trip (mountaineering, climbing, running, biking, paragliding, kayaking). I traveled all over Spain with the camper van, climbing the 18 highest and most important 3000m peaks of Spain. “In women sports there are still many opportunities for me because there are just a few women in the world who dare facing up the awkward demands of an expedition to the highest peaks of the world. Though, it's not about the competition or measuring with other athletes, it is all about proving myself – to myself! What will I be able to achieve? How difficult can things become? Which levels of mental and physical demands will I be able to cope with?”
Kristin Harila Podcast In today's episode of the ‘Finding your Summit' podcast, host Mark Pattison, former NFL Player, Mountaineer who has climbed the Seven Summits, has over 250 podcasts, and a proud Emmy Best Picture Award Winner talks with guest Kristin Harila, a Norwegian Mountaineer, Climber, Skier, and Runner. She holds the distinction of climbing both Mount Everest and the Lhotse summit, at the same time. In the podcast, Kristin shares her experience of climbing many summits. She also talks about her next expedition of climbing K2.
Once upon a time, there was a girl who loved adventure, exploring nature, and dreamt of skiing down the tallest mountains in the world. Her name was Kit DesLauriers, a determined young woman with a fierce curiosity to explore the tallest mountaintops — and then ski freely down the slopes. Kit was the first person to ski all Seven Summits, the first woman to ski Mount Everest, and is a two-time women's world freeskiing champion. About the Narrator Combining a passion for exploration, mountain adventures and skiing, Hilaree Nelson travelled to some of the most exotic mountain ranges on earth. Her expedition career led her to many firsts in the world of ski mountaineering including linking two 8000m peaks (Everest and Lhotse) in one push, first ski descents on Baffin Island, a first American ascent and ski descent of Papsura peak in India, and a first ski descent of the 4th highest peak in the world, Lhotse. She was the Captain of the North Face Athlete Team, an active leader on climate with Protect Our Winters, and an avid proponent of wild places such as the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. Hilaree was also the mother of two wild boys and found her sanity in the San Juan Mountains near her home in Telluride, Colorado.
