Imagine heading for the Summit of Everest... for the 15th time!!
Today, as I write this, a small group of climbers is very high on Mount Everest. They have just reported in from a famous rest stop called "The Balcony" where they will be changing their oxygen bottles and heading on toward the summit. They are a few difficult hours from the top of the world.
The man leading them to the top is incredible. His father was a Sherpa on Sir Edmund Hillary's first climb of the mountain in 1953. He has been a Sherpa himself for 23 years and now guides for Adventure Consultants.
His name is Ang Dorje - and he is an Everest Legend
He has already been to the top of the mountain a whopping 14 times!
I had the huge priviledge of interviewing him when I was at Base Camp a few weeks ago.
Listen in to this interview. In particular, he talks about some of his most challenging moments on the mountain - including being part of the 1996 tragedy.
I hope you find him as inspiring as I do.
NEWSFLASH ! This interview has been profiled by ExplorersWeb! These are the people who provide the leading news on the best of the best in exploration on the planet. This is awesome acknowledgement of what Adventure Coaching are providing.
