Contemplation and Commitment | Hari Mix
http://hmix.org/2015/08/03/contemplation-and-commitment
Earth Science and Alpine Adventure. Khan Tengri at sunset. What a privilege it was to climb in 2011! A few nights ago I awoke at 2:00 to the jingle of my phone. Finding the willpower to extract myself from my sleeping bag is among my greatest challenges in the mountains, but I had no trouble getting dressed on this moonlight night. A sense of purpose filled me. The expedition has become simpler. Clearer. Pobeda. Objects in real life may appear larger. Sunset from base camp. I am strong. I am ready...

2014 Everest | Hari Mix
http://hmix.org/alpinism/everest-2014
Earth Science and Alpine Adventure. Temba and I share a moment after our puja, a blessing for safety and permission from the mountain gods. In 2014, I returned to Nepal for my 3rd time to attempt Everest’s classic Southeast Ridge without supplemental oxygen. The events of this spring are still hard to swallow as the tragic avalanche of April 18 and the chaos that ensued ended my team’s expedition. Links to all related posts are below:. Anatomy of an Expedition. Made it to BC! I am going home.

Yosemite Speed | Hari Mix
http://hmix.org/alpinism/yosemite-speed
Earth Science and Alpine Adventure. I realized that there were established records for a few of the trails. Lower Yosemite Falls in morning mist. I have a healthy ego, but I decided to start off with the modest card, Well, the park service recommends allowing 6 to 8 hours, and I think it might be a bit much for the three of you. Well, how long did it take you? Half Dome veiled in clouds. Yosemite Falls Trail one way (T in valley loop trail to the winter closure gate at the top): 43:04. Passive Fire Compl...

Alps | Hari Mix

Dan and I drove up to Geneva to meet a friend of his, hang out, and head to the Tour de France one morning. Aiguille du Midi and Mont Blanc at sunset. Dan ropes up on the Petit Aiguille Verte. Hundreds of meters of ladders leading down to the Mer de Glace. Descending the arete from the Aigille du Midi. Crossing the col below Mont Maudit. A few days ...

The High Sierra | Hari Mix
http://hmix.org/alpinism/the-high-sierra
Earth Science and Alpine Adventure. The Sierra are currently my home range and I’ll always have an affinity for this narrow strip of clean granite rising out of eastern California desert scrubland. It was here that I first used an ice axe, first took the sharp end of the rope, and planned my own trips and what a place to learn! Traversing on high on the Mountaineer’s Route in winter. Russell, Whitney, Keeler Needle and Muir Linkup. Contemplating the route to Old Army Pass. Finger Lake and the Palisades.
