Bruce Johnson+FollowK2 Summit Drama: Climbers vs. The Jet StreamThe K2 summit push is on hold as the infamous jet stream batters the upper slopes, keeping every would-be summiteer grounded. Supplies are running low, and the weather window is closing fast, but the Imagine Nepal crew and independent no-O2 climbers are holding out hope for a break. The real rivalry? Climbers vs. Mother Nature—and this year, the mountain is winning. Anyone else think this could go down as one of the most suspenseful K2 seasons yet? #Sports #K2 #Mountaineering00Share
Sandra Escobar+FollowEpic New Route on Jirishanca!Three climbers just pulled off a wild first ascent on Jirishanca’s east face in Peru—think 1,300m of gnarly, technical climbing in perfect conditions. They named the route Kolibri (which means hummingbird), and it’s already being called one of the most significant climbs of 2025. The trio spent two nights on the wall, tackled crazy-hard pitches, and topped out at over 6,000m. This one’s for the alpine climbing history books! #News #climbing #mountaineering10Share
Alexander Thomas+FollowEverest Climbing Season Wraps Up!Everest’s spring climbing season just ended, and wow—what a ride! Unpredictable winds made things wild, but nearly 700 people still summited from the south side, and every team on the north side made it too. Fewer climbers might hit the mountain this fall, thanks to pricier permits. Shoutout to the Sagarmatha Pollution Control Committee for keeping Everest cleaner than ever! For now, Everest’s taking a breather until next year. Anyone else already dreaming of the next summit season? #Everest2024 #ClimbingSeason #Mountaineering #Travel60Share
ethanconner+FollowEverest Climbers Using Gas?!Climbers just summited Everest in under 5 days—thanks to inhaling xenon gas before their trip! The shortcut skips weeks of acclimatization, but now the mountaineering world is freaking out. Some say it’s the future of climbing, others warn it’s risky and could make Everest even more crowded (and dangerous). The Nepalese government is even investigating. Would you try this wild new hack or stick to the old-school way? #Everest #Mountaineering #Adventure #Spirituality00Share
Nicholas Lyons+FollowEverest Climber Calls Out Adventure PricesDid you know the first Welshman to summit Everest says climbing’s become a total circus? Caradoc Jones paid just £3k for his epic 1995 trip—now it’s up to £60k! He says adventure’s lost its soul to big business and fancy gear, but real mountaineering is still out there if you look. Wild to think the world’s biggest peaks are now more about cash than courage! #Everest #AdventureTravel #Mountaineering #Travel00Share
Barbara Whitaker MD+FollowEverest Drama: No-O2 Climbers Push LimitsEverest is wild right now! Tyler Andrews had to turn back just below the summit on his no-oxygen speed record attempt and is hustling down in the dark—he’s almost at Camp 2. Meanwhile, Anja Blacha from Germany just quietly bagged her 12th 8,000’er without bottled O2, making her one of only three women ever to do almost all 14. The Khumbu Icefall is getting sketchy, so climbers are rushing to get down ASAP. Would you ever try Everest without oxygen? #Everest2024 #NoO2Climbers #Mountaineering #Spirituality30Share
Charles Coleman+FollowEverest Climbed in Under a Week?!A team just scaled Mt. Everest in record time—less than a week—by using an anesthetic gas to speed up their climb. Normally, it takes weeks or even months to acclimate to the crazy high altitudes, but this shortcut has some experts seriously worried about the risks. Would you try it or stick to the old-school way? #Everest #Mountaineering #Adventure #Spirituality81Share
robertjones+FollowNY to Everest Summit in 4 Days?!A Ukrainian guy living in the US claims he went from sea level in New York to the top of Mount Everest in just four days—no weeks of acclimatizing like everyone else! He prepped by sleeping in a hypoxic tent at home and used supplemental oxygen, but no fancy gases. The record isn’t verified yet, but if true, this is next-level wild. Imagine telling your boss you’ll be back from Everest by Monday! #Everest #Mountaineering #Adventure #Spirituality10Share
Justin Dixon+FollowEverest Climbed in 5 Days?!British climbers just made Everest history by reaching the summit in under five days—thanks to Xenon gas! Instead of weeks of acclimatisation, they prepped with Xenon inhalation and high-altitude tents at home. Some call it a game-changer for safety and the environment (less time, less waste), while others say it’s a stunt. Would you try this shortcut or stick to the old-school grind? #Everest #Climbing #Innovation #Adventure #Mountaineering #Travel30Share
Sandra Escobar+FollowDid These Brits Hack Everest?Four ex-special forces Brits just climbed Everest in under five days—without the usual weeks of acclimatising! Their secret? Xenon gas and hypoxic tents. It’s wild because most climbers spend 6-8 weeks getting used to the altitude, but these guys basically prepped at home and went straight up. The mountaineering world is divided: is this a game-changing shortcut or just risky business? Would you try it if it meant skipping weeks on the mountain? #Everest #Adventure #Mountaineering #Innovation #RecordBreaking #Spirituality130Share
