  • Join David Lama from advanced basecamp to summit on his successful solo push for the first ascent of Lunag Ri, a previously unclimbed peak of 6.907meters on the borderline between Nepal and Tibet. On 23 October 2018 the Austrian with Nepali heritage set out carrying a POV camera and was followed by a drone navigated from advanced BC.
    Check out the documentary "David Lama & Conrad Anker walk the line“ on the dramatic happenings during the 2015 & 2016 attempts on Lunag Ri: • Lunag Ri - David Lama ...

    "What matters to me is that I can stand behind my decisions and actions. Obviously, a series of misfortunes can lead to a fatal end on any of my adventures. There is no point in denying that fact. It is my willingness to commit that demonstrates the total conviction of my actions, and that gives great personal value to my alpinism."
    David Lama
    May you,Jess and Hansjorg climb the highest mountains of heaven.
    Rest in peace great humble man!

      Nishant Singh It is NOT a 'small' peak. What Howse Peak lacks in elevation is countered by a very substantial ~4000 foot, mostly vertical climb. They chose a new route, no doubt one with unique challenges.
