ROMA (ITALPRESS) - Nima Rinji Sherpa ha solo 18 anni è il più giovane ad aver scalato tutte le vette più alte del mondo. Dopo la vetta del monte Shishapangma, in Cina, si è aggiudicato il record mondiale. Radioimmaginaria, la radio degli adolescenti, ne parla in questo nuovo servizio.

RunOut #113: How a Race to Get a Climbing Record Turned Deadly RunOut #113: How a Race to Get a Climbing Record Turned Deadly This fall, two American women found themselves in an unlikely race to reach the summit of Shishapangma, and thereby earn themselves a place in the record books as being the first American woman to have done all 14 8,000-meter peaks (with oxygen). Unfortunately, both Anna Gutu and Gina Rzucidło, alongside their respective Sherpa guides Mingmar Sherpa and Tenjen Lama, perished in two separate avalanches about 30 minutes apart around 7,800 meters. Did this informal competition lead them to making bad decisions that ultimately cost everyone their lives? To make sense of this terrible tragedy, as well as to discuss some of the ongoing issues around competency, infrastructure, and regulations within the Himalayan guiding industry, we speak to Adrian Ballinger of Alpenglow Expeditions. Adrian has guided numerous high-altitude peaks, including many summits of Mount Everest, and his company Alpenglow leads over 30 international expeditions each year. And he has also personally climbed Mount Everest and K2 without using oxygen, and notably made the first ski descent of Makalu. But first, your friendly neighborhood climbing podcasters think about what would happen if the Rapture came for pro climbers and they were all smite'd away from this good, green earth. Would that change anything about the climbing we know and love? Last, today's final bit comes from an experimental instrumental band called Les Rhinoceros, with drums and percussion played by climber and friend of the pod Jon Burrier.

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.

The past few months have been difficult in the mountaineering world. We have seen climbs on many 800ers that turned out tragically: Mohammed Hassan on K2, Anna Gutu, Migmar Sherpa, American Gina Marie Rzucidlo and Tenjen Lama Sherpa on Shishapangma. A few dramatic rescues and a never-ending quest for records. I turned to long-time alpinist Adrian Ballinger, co-founder of Alpenglow, to try and make sense of what's going on, what can be done to prevent these seemingly preventable deaths and if the pursuit of records is worth the risks. We also discuss his return to Everest planned for 2024 after missing the last four seasons due to China's closure on their side of Everest .Climb On!

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 mountain guide who recently climbed the world's 14 tallest mountains in record time has set a new goal for himself. Tenjen Sherpa of Nepal says he now wants to become the youngest person to climb all the peaks twice. Last month, the 35-year-old Tenjen and 37–year-old Norwegian Kristin Harila, broke the record for the fastest climb of the mountains. All of the peaks are above 8,000 meters. The two reached the final mountaintop, K2, in 92 days. It was very speedy. The record they broke was set at 189 days.↳ Now, Tenjen is preparing for his new goal. He said he hopes to start by climbing Mount Shishapangma in China in the next two months. “I have already done (it) once and I want to double it,” he told the Associated Press.一位登山向导最近以创纪录的时间攀登了世界 14 座最高的山峰，他为自己设定了新的目标。尼泊尔的 Tenjen Sherpa 表示，他现在想成为两次登上所有山峰的最年轻的人。上个月，35岁的Tenjen和37岁的挪威人Kristin Harila打破了最快爬山记录。所有山峰海拔均在8000米以上。两人用了 92 天到达了最后的山顶 K2。速度非常快。他们打破的纪录是 189 天。↳ 现在，Tenjen 正在为他的新目标做准备。他说，他希望在未来两个月内首先攀登中国的希夏邦马峰。 “我已经做过一次了，我想加倍，”他告诉美联社。Only one person has climbed all 14 peaks twice. Forty-eight-year-old Sanu Sherpa completed his second climb of the mountains last year. Tenjen has already climbed seven of the mountains twice. He hopes to climb the remaining seven by next spring. Tenjen climbed the first of these mountains in 2016, when he reached the top of Mount Dhaulagiri in Nepal. He has since made several similar climbs every year, including four trips to Mount Everest.唯一一个曾两次登上全部14座山峰的人。四十八岁的萨努·夏尔巴去年完成了他的第二次登山。 Tenjen 已经两次攀登了其中的七座山峰。他希望在明年春天之前攀登剩余的七座。 Tenjen 于 2016 年攀登了第一座山峰，登上了尼泊尔道拉吉里峰的山顶。此后，他每年都会进行几次类似的攀登，其中包括四次登上珠穆朗玛峰。He and his three brothers set a record as the most siblings to have climbed Mount Kanchenjunga. Kanchenjunga is the world's third-tallest mountain, behind Mount Everest and K2.Tenjen started working as a mountain guide to support his family. However, in April, the Kathmandu company Seven Summits Treks hired Tenjen to join Harila's trip to Mount Shishapangma. Harila and Tenjen then climbed the rest of the mountains together. “It was my good luck and (I) was fortunate to be with her in the team,” Tenjen said to the Associated Press.他和他的三个兄弟创下了登上干城章嘉峰最多兄弟姐妹的记录。干城章嘉峰是世界第三高山，仅次于珠穆朗玛峰和乔戈里峰。Tenjen 开始做登山向导来养家糊口。然而，四月份，加德满都七峰徒步旅行公司聘请 Tenjen 加入 Harila 的希夏邦马山之旅。 Harila 和 Tenjen 随后一起攀登了其余的山峰。 “这是我的运气，（我）很幸运能和她一起加入球队，”滕詹对美联社说。Tenjen plans to climb Shishapangma for the second time later this fall. He plans on carrying with him pictures of a brother who died. Shishapangma was the only one of the 14 tallest mountains that this brother had not climbed. Tenjen says he will bury the images on the mountaintop. Tenjen told the AP that Sherpas do not get enough government recognition for their hard work. “It is not possible to just continue climbing mountains as you grow older, so what else is there than to think of migrating abroad,” Tenjen pointed out. Tenjen never attended school growing up. He has difficulty reading and writing. But, living in Kathmandu, Nepal's capital, his children are able to get an education. Tenjen thinks, though, that since more children will be growing up in cities in the future, they will not have the skills to become Sherpas.Tenjen 计划在今年秋天晚些时候第二次攀登希夏邦马峰。他计划随身携带已故兄弟的照片。希夏邦马峰是十四座最高山中唯一一位这位兄弟没有攀登过的山峰。 Tenjen 说他会将这些图像埋在山顶上。坦詹告诉美联社，夏尔巴人的辛勤工作没有得到政府足够的认可。 “随着年龄的增长，继续爬山是不可能的，所以除了考虑移居国外之外，还有什么办法呢？”Tenjen 指出。 Tenjen 从小就没有上过学。他阅读和写作都有困难。但是，生活在尼泊尔首都加德满都，他的孩子们能够接受教育。不过，Tenjen 认为，由于未来会有更多的孩子在城市长大，他们将不具备成为夏尔巴人的技能。

Everest teams are doing the usual acclimatization rotations but are seeing heavy attrition that will ease crowding concerns. There's a new level of base camp luxuries that might be beyond the pale for some purists.  Heavy snow is forecasted on Dhaulagiri, stalling movement there. Overall, it's been a low-drama year, thankfully. In this episode, I explore controversy on Shishapangma, exploding luxuries at Everest base Camp, and a narrative about the Western Cwm between Camps 1 and 2 on Everest. Climb On!

[Montagnes Podcast - Épisode 11] Sophie Lavaud au Dhaulagiri, son 12ème 8000 C'est une nuit noire, sans lune. Au loin, on aperçoit les frontales de l'équipe de tête, qui bataille depuis des heures pour ouvrir la trace vers le sommet du Dhaulagiri. Sophie Lavaud se décrit comme une femme ordinaire avec un rêve extraordinaire. En 2012, elle marque les esprits en grimpant le Shishapangma et le Cho Oyu. C'est alors qu'une idée folle germe dans sa tête : gravir les 14 8000. Depuis, Sophie ne quitte plus l'Himalaya. Everest, Makalu, Broad Peak... elle multiplie les ascensions. En octobre 2019, elle attaque son 12ème 8000, le Dhaulagiri, perché à 8167 mètres. Une première tentative, une seconde, puis une troisième, Sophie enchaîne les échecs mais elle ne lâche rien. En 2021, elle est de retour pour la quatrième fois, si proche de réaliser son rêve mais rien n'est fini. Chaque 8000 est une épreuve qui réserve toujours son lot de surprises.

While Mike Marolt is a US Ski and Snowboard Hall of Fame Member and a badass ski mountaineer, he never really had a pro ski career. He makes his money as a CPA. Ski-wise, Mike did so many incredible things, at high altitudes-without using oxygen, sherpa, or drugs, but he was always treated like Rodney Dangerfield. He and his crew never got the respect they deserved. On the podcast, we talk about the Marolt family roots in Aspen, his identical twin brother, college baseball, and his incredible resume full of American firsts in ski descents, and more.

Kristin Harila (36) fra Finnmark har siden 28. april 2022 vært på 11 Himalaya-topper over 8000 meter. Nå gjenstår fjellene Manaslu, Shishapangma og Cho Oyo før hun kan bli den raskeste i verden til å ha klatret alle de 14 8000-meterne på kloden. Fra å være en ukjent leder i den norske møbelbransjen er Harila plutselig et av de aller største navnene i internasjonal fjellsport. Hva skjedde? Hva er det som driver henne? Og hvilke tanker gjør hun seg om alt fra likestilling, norske fjell og livet etter verdensrekordforsøket?Programleder: Eivind Eidslott Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A new trend in 8000-meter climbing is how many you can get in one trip and how fast. Norweigan Kristin Harila is on track to smash long-time records this year. Thus far, she has eleven of the fourteen, all with climbing Sherpas, Pasdawa Sherpa, and Dawa Ongju Sherpa, of 8K Expeditions. I had the opportunity to record this interview with her during a short respite back home in Norway. The current record is 189 days between April 23 and October 29, 2019, by Nirmal Purja Pun Magar and is recognized by Guinness World Records. However, a study posted online notes it took Nirmal five years, four months, and 25 days to complete all 14, primarily due to their conclusion that he didn't reach Manaslu's true summit during his 2019 campaign and only did in the autumn of 2021. Kristin's first summit of the project was Annapurna on April 28, 2022. She will need to finish by November 3, 2022, to get the speed record. She is no stranger to mountaineering. In 2019, 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 is as a mountaineer, runner, and skier. Next up for the trio are Nepal's Manaslu true summit, before trying Cho Oyu and Shishapangma. She prefers climbing both from the Tibet side, but as we know, the Chinese have closed Tibet for climbing due to COVID since 2000. They will have to get an exception to enter the country for their attempt. She tells me she will attempt Cho from Nepal if she cannot enter Tibet. Pemba Sherpa, the founder of 8K Expeditions, tells me: I have never seen such a strong woman in mountaineering. If China gives the chance to climb Shixapangma and Cho-oyu, she will definitely complete the project in expected time along with Pasdawa and Dawa Ongju. This is a fun, fast-paced interview where we cover many topics, including: Kristin and her Sherpa team Her background growing up in Norway and as a professional skier Women climbing 8000-meter peaks Children The trash and experience epidemic on the 8000ers this year A brief rundown of her climbs thus far A look at what's ahead for the three Best of luck to Kristin, Pasdawa, and 'Uncle Dawa.' She leaves next week for the final phase of the "Bremont 14 Peaks" project. You can follow Kristin on Instagram, Facebook, or her website and 8K Expeditions. Climb On! Alan Memories are Everything

Eu montanhista Freddy Duclerc e apresento o episódio nº119 da terceira temporada com tema: JAPÃO – Pais de Trekkings e Montanhas com o Montanhista e Fotografo Marcel Kato. Vamos viajar no tempo com Marcel Kato, ele nasceu na cidade de Jundiaí, interior de São Paulo. Pai do Luan, sempre foi apaixonado por natureza, desde pequeno quando acompanhava seus pais em viagens para Mato Grosso, Minas Gerais e muitas cidades no estado de São Paulo. Atualmente mora Japão, a 16 anos, na cidade de Hamamatsu e usando suas palavras, ele diz: O Japão é a terra no qual eu me apaixonei, principalmente pela cultura, onde o respeito pelo próximo é uma das grandes virtudes do povo japonês. Recentemente fui premiado com a primeira colocação no concurso de fotografia do consulado geral, o tema era “Um olhar sobre a comunidade brasileira no Japão!” Uma grande honra. Já estive por 12 vezes no ponto mais alto do Japão, o Monte Fuji. A primeira vez foi em 2009, de lá para cá, foram várias histórias e Sempre muito bem acompanhado e outras vezes sozinho, colocando em prática a solitude! Hoje não me imagino viver sem o Montanhismo, amo este esporte, que virou filosofia de vida. Mas vamos falar um pouquinho do montanhismo no Japão! O símbolo do Japão é o Monte Fuji (3.776m), próximo de Tóquio. Um país que tem uma das montanhas mais belas do mundo como símbolo nacional não poderia ficar alheio ao montanhismo e a presença Japonesa no Himalaia sempre foi muito destacada e marcante com muitas rotas abertas e conquistas. Com uma grande quantidade de praticantes, o Japão possui vários clubes de montanhismo (Hokei, Sendai, Hosei, Showa, Nerima, Sapporo, Tóquio). É bastante comum a cooperação entre dois ou mais clubes alpinos para organizar grandes expedições. O mais famoso e proeminente de todos é o Clube Alpino Japonês (JAC), que tem 117 anos sendo referência mundial. As mulheres japonesas sempre estiveram à frente do seu tempo e no montanhismo mostraram suas conquistas, mas destaco Junko Tabei, a primeira mulher a chegar no cume Everest. Junko também fez a primeira ascensão feminina ao Shishapangma (em 1981), e subiu o Cho Oyu em 1996, aos 57 anos. Sua frase mais famosa: “Eu sou um espírito livre das montanhas”.

Death on the Nile Belgian sleuth Hercule Poirot's Egyptian vacation aboard a glamorous river steamer turns into a terrifying search for a murderer when a picture-perfect couple's idyllic honeymoon is tragically cut short. Torn On Oct. 5, 1999, legendary climber Alex Lowe was tragically lost alongside cameraman and fellow climber David Bridges in an avalanche on the slopes of the Tibetan mountain, Shishapangma. LISTEN ABOVE  

In 1999, Alex Lowe was a star climber and father to three young boys when he died on Tibet's 26,335-foot Shishapangma along with expedition cameraman David Bridges. The lone survivor of the accident was Conrad Anker, Alex's climbing partner and best friend. A year after the tragedy, Anker married Jennifer Lowe, Alex's widow and mother to their three young boys, Max, Sam, and Isaac. Ever since, storytellers have been captivated by this tale, but now a powerful new documentary by Max Lowe, Torn, reveals how grief can evolve over decades—and how love can heal even the deepest emotional wounds. In this episode, Lowe shares what it's been like to tell his family's story and what he hopes we can all learn from it.

Episode #6 manages to make mention of both Nanga Parbat (8,126m, home to the towering four-and-a-half-kilometre tall Rupal Face), and the exquisite Roseberry Topping (320m, 16th highest point in the North York Moors). That's because the man doing most of the talking is Alan Hinkes: acclaimed climber, photographer, author, motivational speaker, environmentalist, mountain guide, Yorkshireman, and summiteer of all 14 of the world's 8,000m mountains. This last feat being one of tremendous objective danger, Alan is one of fewer than 50 climbers who have stood atop Shishapangma, Gasherbrum II, Broad Peak, Gasherbrum I, Annapurna, Nanga Parbat, Manaslu, Dhaulagiri, Cho Oyu, Makalu, Lhotse, Kangchenjunga, K2, and (of course) Everest, without being claimed by avalanche, rockfall, edema or human error. What drives a person to attempt such a thing? Is 10 per cent risk of death ever acceptable? Does it rain more in Cumbria or Yorkshire? Let's find out together. 00:00 - Introduction 02:34 - Welcome (Yorkshireman of the Year) 04:04 - “More and more I think kindness is the way forward” 05:05 - Life across the mountainous swathe of northern England 06:20 - Introduction to the 8,000ers (“Buy my book!

Il a grimpé avec les plus grands, Lorétan, Troillet, ou Steck mais son nom est moins connu du grand public. Le guide valaisan Frédéric Roux est pourtant un alpiniste et himalayiste virtuose. On peut citer lʹascension de cinq 8000 sans oxygène (Shishapangma, Cho Oyu, Makalu et Gasherbrum I et II). Et trois tentatives sur le K2, la dernière en 2019 avec Mike Horn. Toujours avec la manière, cʹest-à-dire sans porteur, sans corde fixe et bien évidemment sans oxygène supplémentaire. Il est lʹinvité dʹAltitudes ce dimanche pour nous parler de sa passion des très hautes altitudes. Alors que le climat se tend entre la Suisse et ses voisins européens en matière dʹouverture des stations de ski, nous irons voir sur le terrain à quoi va ressembler lʹouverture de cette saison si particulière, comment du point de vue des professionnels du secteur on envisage ces prochaines semaines et les fêtes de fin dʹannée. Anouck Merz sʹest rendue dans le secteur de Glacier 3000, au-dessus des Diablerets, dans le canton de Vaud, pour voir ce qui était mis en place.

Une femme discrète et passionnée se raconte dans Altitudes. Et très très forte aussi! Guide de montagne à Arolla, depuis une petite trentaine dʹannées, elle aime parfois quitter son Val dʹHérens de cœur pour aller embrasser les cimes himalayennes. Josette Valloton a déjà gravi sept sommets de plus de 8000 mètres: le Dhaulaghiri à 8167 mètres, le Makalu à 8485 mètres, le Manaslu à 8163 mètres, le Lhotse à 8516 mètres, le Cho Oyu à 8201 mètres, et les deux sommets du Shishapangma à 8046 mètres et 8013 mètres. Et elle compte bien ne pas sʹarrêter là…

Que raconte cette quête du "troisième pôle", comme on lʹappelait à lʹépoque? Comment sʹest-elle déroulée? Simon Matthey-Doret nous raconte cette histoire à lʹaide dʹarchives. Nous entendrons notamment les premiers mots du Néo-Zélandais Edmund Hillary vainqueur de lʹEverest en 1953, tout juste arrivé à lʹaéroport de Kloten après sa réussite, interrogé par un journaliste de Radio Lausanne…

This week, Dave and Kraig explore how to properly use base layers to stay warm in cold weather and winter activities. Having the right gear makes all the difference of course, but using those garments with one another in a smart way is also key. Before jumping into that topic, the boys first take a look at the latest Adventrue News, with an update on Nims Purja on Shishapangma, a nine-year old rock climber in Yosemite, and a man who sailed around North and South America, as well as Antarctica. This week's Gear Picks include a set of two-way radios from Midland and a comfy set of shoes from Merrell.

On this week's episode of The Adventure Podcast we take a look at one of the most iconic feats in the world of outdoor adventure — The Seven Summits. We take a deep dive into the mountains that make up this list, the origins of the idea of the Seven Summits, and how they are still relevant even after hundreds of people have climbed them all. But before diving into that topic, we cover a wide range of Adventure News, including controversy surrounding Nike's high-tech marathon shoes, an update on Nims Purja on Shishapangma, and an $80,000 trip to the North Pole by blimp. Later, Dave and Kraig share their weekly gear picks, with Kraig offering his thoughts on a great travel pack from Cotopaxi, while Dave talks fleece-lined pants!

In May 2000, after a childhood growing up in Aspen and climbing and skiing in Colorado’s Elk Mountains, twins Mike and Steve Marolt and life-long friend Jim Gile became the first Americans ever to climb and ski from above 8,000 meters / 26,250 feet when they skied from the central peak of Shishapangma, Tibet.  This accomplishment placed them in an elite class amongst the world’s greatest ski mountaineers. In 2003, the team followed up with a first-ever American ski descent of the north ridge of Everest.  In 2007, they skied the north ridge of Everest for the second time, and also became the first Americans and only the fifth people ever to attain multiple ski descents from above 8,000 meters when they skied from the summit of Cho Oyu, Tibet.  Since then, they have completed many ski descents from the world’s greatest peaks, including six from above 7,000 meters, making them the world leaders in high altitude ski descents.  All told, their ski resume spans over 25 years with expeditions to some 40 of the world’s greatest and highest peaks. They only climb “pure style” using no supplemental oxygen, porters, or altitude drugs, an aspect that enhances their accomplishments. The Marolt brothers’ ski heritage starts four generations ago when the family first arrived in Aspen Valley.  Beginning as simple miners and barkeeps, they became ranchers and eventually world-class skiers.  Mike and Steve’s father, Max Marolt, joined the US Olympic team in 1954 and skied in the Squaw Valley Winter Olympics in 1960.  Max’s career in the ski industry spanned 60 years.  He and his brother Bill have both been inducted into the Colorado Ski Hall of Fame. The trio has also established themselves as independent filmmakers, having produced eight adventure documentary films, including SKIING EVEREST, which won the Ski Channel’s Best Adventure Film of the Year in 2010.  SKIING EVEREST has premiered all over the world, most recently on ESPN and PBS, and has just been converted to 3D, making it the first film on Everest to premiere in that format.  To learn more about Mike email him atmarolt@rof.net.

La pregunta sigue siendo la misma "¿Qué hay en la cabeza de Carlos Soria?"Carlos Soria llega a España con la misma sonrisa con la que se fue. Nos habla de la maravillosa convivencia que ha existido durante toda la #ExpediciónCorreos: Sito Carcavilla, Luis Miguel López Soriano y él son un equipo fuerte y unido. Y de cómo el tiempo, su máxima preocupación, les ha jugado una mala pasada. En esta ocasión, "El Dhaula" tenía más nieve de lo normal, algo que en seguida vio Soria nada más llegar. Pero no parecía peligroso, era factible, era una conquista que se podía hacer.Soria cuenta que los días de ataque a cumbre estaba destrozado. Aquel penúltimo empujón no se podía hacer ni antes ni después, era en ese momento, o nunca. Pero Carlos estaba en su peor momento, estaba flojo y necesitaba unos días para recuperarse. "El Dhaula" no da tregua y la decisión fue fácil de tomar: "sin ninguna duda, hay que bajar". Se trataba del final de la expedición, resultaba muy complicado volver a intentarlo porque había mucho desgaste y gasto del oxígeno.A pesar de haber sido, en cada etapa, de los últimos en salir y de los primer en llegar, Carlos Soria comenta entre risas que "a los 60 era una máquina". Y, aunque los años pasen por su cuerpo, no lo hacen por su cabeza. Ha puesto un punto y seguido y su mente ya está pensando en la siguiente expedición: el Shishapangma en China. Después, volverá al "Dhaula". Tendrá para entonces casi 80 años. Pero no importa, eso no es lo importante. Madrid Junio de 2017. Estudios de Cadena SER.
