Thanks for watching :)
Fun to be reminded of the mountain. I traversed it solo in 1994. Pretty hard going with a storm on the day I summited. Went through a period of hallucinating white rabbits and Samurais on horseback on the way down. Happy memories!
I climbed it in February 1984. Descending from the summit alone, I saw in a place called " El acarreo" very nice blond women ridding white horses along a beach then, I remembered the words of a wise polish expedition cook, he told us: "it doesn't matter what you hear or what you see, keep descending, keep walking, never stop pushing until you reach the safety of the base camp". This profetic words save my life. Thank you. Where ever you are I'll always thank you.
The award this won was "Best ad for a tour agency", and "Most edits that removed the things you would actually want to see."
the music in the background is so careless and uninspiring but its also distracting and bears no connection at all to the topic of discussion or footage shown or even whats happening in frame.
Climbed and summited. Spent 4 days at base camp, climbed high slept low then went to 19000 for 2 days and summited from 19000 back down to 19000 then all the way down to base camp and out to the trail head. Summited day low wind 5 below. Great summit. Worse part of the climb was the wind coming through the valley to base camp picking up the sand and dust. Over all this is an easy mountain Rainer is much harder.
How did this win awards?
This won awards?
I'll wait until they install an elevator.
Do they do the vegetarian option!
One can only pray that they leave the area litter free. Poor Mt Everest looks like a junkyard according to some people.
I was there, many years ago... happy to see and hear that the motivation and sensations are still alive...
Been up there in Feb. 2008. One of the greatest moments in my life.
un beau reportage réveillant de beaux souvenirs ! merci
Great film showing this beautiful mountain! Well done 👍🤙🤙
These self-made documentaries are the best. Great!
Tried twice, turned from summit bid due to bad weather. Love the people and the country which makes this mountain very special.
This is a great little documentary. I climbed this route in Feb. 2014 and the scenes you included are so special. Thank you James.
Much respect to those out there living their lives for us in here
Great video! I can't wait to go here once the world opens up for travel again!
Great video. I summited Aconcagua on Christmas Day, 2017, just a couple of weeks after you guys.
