A childhood friend of #MohammedHassan, the porter who died on #K2 as other #mountaineers allegedly stepped over him in their rush to the summit, has described it as "the most dehumanising event of my life" and says he hope it will "not happen in the future". "The #climbers, who scaled the K2 this year, I understand their behaviour was below #humanity and it was very saddening, after they walked past the man after he was gravely injured in a fall and they scaled the K2".

"How do you sign if you’re holding an ice ax? Do guides refuse to work with you if you can’t hear? What happens if you can’t see each other signing at night?"

Looking for #skiers, #alpinists, #climbers, and other #themountainismychurch folks. I've realized that the only thing I miss about Twitter is my #skiing community - it was really nice to be able to keep up with folks, weather, pow, #skiculture around the world.
Please boost if you think you have followers w/similar interest. I'll reboost this periodically for the same reason; hope that won't be too annoying. ✌️❄️⛷️🌋

Waiting in line to reach the summit of Mount Everest can be a RISKY endeavor. Climbers can be exposed to harsh weather conditions such as high winds, freezing temperatures, and low oxygen levels. Being stuck in a line can also lead to delays, which in turn can cause climbers to spend more time on the mountain than they had planned, putting them at risk of exhaustion, dehydration, and altitude sickness.
The crowded conditions on the mountain can also lead to bottlenecks, where climbers may become stuck in a fixed location, unable to move up or down the mountain, which can be fatal. All these risks are in addition to the inherent risks of climbing a mountain as high and treacherous as Mount Everest, which is known for its steep inclines, crevasses, and avalanches.
All in all, waiting in line to reach the summit of Mount Everest can be a dangerous and potentially life-threatening situation.

Any recommendations please for "low volume" mens climbing shoes in sizes EUR 45 or UK 11 ish?
Or shops that stock a range of styles to try on 😅
Thanks #climbers!

Look at the trunk on this #bougainvillea. I wonder how many years this has been growing in the mild air on this shore of #Madeira.
