Surviving the Everest Tragedy: A Woman's Story
GUARANTEED SAFE CHECKOUT
Lene Gammelgaard, the first Scandinavian woman to summit Mount Everest on May 10, 1996, faced tragedy as a raging storm and human error led to the deaths of eight climbers, including renowned leader Scott Fischer. The harrowing experience made headlines worldwide, turning triumph into catastrophe.
Gammelgaard recounts her journey from dedicated training to the excitement of arriving in Nepal, the challenging climb, and the deadly storm that forced her team to huddle together overnight in a fight for survival. She vividly describes the beauty of Everest, the passion and dedication required to conquer high altitudes, and the complex relationships formed in the pursuit of dangerous adventures.
Arlene Blum, author of the renowned book Annapurna: A Woman's Place, praises Climbing High as "an honest and deeply personal account" of Gammelgaard's experience on the world's highest peak.
