Die heutige Episode führt uns an den Dachstein. Dort habe ich einen Grundkurs Bergsteigen abgehalten. Schwere Bedingungen machten es nicht leicht für die Teilnehmer. Wir zeigen in der Episode Ausschnitte aus dem Kurs, z.B. Ablassen / Abseilen und Gehen im weglosen Gelände. Viel Spaß dabei.

There’s one mountain though that universally captures our imaginations. Everest. It's not the hardest mountain out there to climb, it’s not the longest either. But for over 90 years thousands of individuals have made it their obsession to reach its crown.
In this episode we meet Alex. After struggling through epilepsy as a child he got bit by the Everest bug. We follow his story as he became witness to two of the worst disasters in the mountain's history.

On the Nepal side of Mt Everest, just above basecamp at (17,600ft) on the South Col Route lies the Khumbu glacier. At the head of this massive field of ice is an area known as the Khumbu Icefall. Often regarded as one of the most dangerous parts of the Southeast route this waterfall of giant blocks of ice (some as big as buses or even houses) is constantly moving. And surrounding these gigantic shifting blocks of ice are seracs and crevases that go down hundreds of feet into the glacier.
We pick up Alex's story after the 2014 Avalanche in the Khumbu Icefall that killed 16 Sherpas.

The Story
In our previous episodes, Alex told us that on the morning of April 25th, 2015 his team had set out into the Kumbu Icefall for a few days of acclimatizing. Alex was near the top of the icefall when the 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck.
This set off hundreds of avalanches around the country including several on and around Mt. Everest. Listen to Alex describing the avalanche that was coming at him near camp 1.
