Why climb? If you have dedicated your life to the game of gravity you ask yourself why. Your family asks why. Society asks why. The answer is unique to each person. Perhaps it doesn’t need to be answered? On a personal level it’s the bonds of friendship that make this pastime a treasure. We create a team for a shared goal, the foundation of which is trust. @renan_ozturk & @jimmychin built upon this over two expeditions to Meru Peak in the Garwhal Himal. Location also taps in as an answer to the why. One sees the minuscule, a RURP placement for instance, while being surrounded by the immensity of nature. When climbing there is a “is this real” reflection that brings life into focus. We would have our “is it real” perspective after a meager dinner. Climbing activates the problem solving logical mind while at the same time being quite primal. Maybe it’s some sort of biological factory setting that we were born with? Anytime your life is on the line you’re living analog. 12 years ago today we reached the summit. 15 years ago we turned back near the summit. Returning to the same mountain we were reminded that the summit is what drives us, yet the process of getting there is the hidden magic of life. Forever grateful for my family for their support of this frivolous pursuit and to the team that brought @merufilm to audiences around the world. When I meet the occasional person for whom the film is meaningful, I’m happy that they found climbing. Yet there is pause as they are about to embark on a journey that is experienced based. And if you climb long enough you’ll understand that climbing makes us pay for the summit moments with the weight of loss. Experience, is after all, the teacher. @thenorthface_climb @ibexexpeditions Photos by @jimmychin, slide six by @renan_ozturk (thank you)

@himalayanfdn Mission Statement “The American Himalayan Foundation brings shelter, safety, education, health, and opportunity to people across the Himalaya.” When I first ventured to the Himalaya 35 years ago it was about me. My ego had it out to climb a fantastic line and return a different person. What that different person was surprised me. It wasn’t the fluted ridges of ice that left an impression on me, it was the people that lived in the mountains. My Western view of conquering a peak was softened by the kind and generous people I met along the way. Mountains were deities, formidable and imposing. There was no need to climb. Things changed 70 years ago with the first ascent of Everest by Tenzing Norgay and Ed Hillary. There was a need to climb – it was income for people that a generation prior were subsistence pastoralists, farmers and traders. We, as climbers, benefited from the hard work that the local communities offered. Yet it came with a price. Himalayan climbing is dangerous. We, as climbers, would pay people to take on this risk. Loss, disruption and societal consequences were part of this equation- one the Sherpa, Bhoti, Tamang and other Nepali communities did not ask for, expect or were prepared to handle. Ed Hillary, the humble bee keeper turned global icon, used his experience to help others. In this spirit the @himalayanfdn was founded. Over the decades the Foundation has helped those in need. The marginalized people of the Himalaya are who we strive to help. The HospitalCenter for Disabled Children and the Stop Girl Trafficking are two programs the the AHF supports with partnership from Nepali doctors and clinics. The following slides are images of gratitude. It is moments like these that keep my follow board members putting effort into make the world a better and more equitable place. Please consider joining us for the annual in person meeting in San Francisco 26 October 2023. @kristin.harila @norbutenzing @kamiritasherpa @krakauernotwriting will be there! If schedule and timing doesn’t work, please consider a donation. #americanhimalayanfoundation #everest70 #climbing #himalaya #dogoodwork #happiness

YETI PRESENTS | MALIK: Watch the film at the link in our bio. “It’s kind of serendipitous that I’ve lived my life in a way that even when I was at my lowest, I knew that I was somebody, and there was more out there in the world for me. While filming, I was pushed far beyond what I thought were my limits and abilities. During Conrad and I’s expedition, I survived storms on the side of the mountain, encountered a grizzly bear (and lived to tell the story), and climbed to higher heights than I could have ever imagined. I am forever grateful for the bonds Conrad and I forged over the years and to be in his circle of influence.” – @malikthamartian “When Malik and I met in 2018, we realized we were cut from the same cloth — a cloth that unfortunately included loss. Over the years, Malik and I have become closer and our friendship has grown to include my sons Max, Sam, and Isaac. When Max and Malik dreamed up a film, I was excited to share what our friendship brings and help create a dialogue of understanding and compassion. And that’s good thing.” – Ambassador @conrad_anker #BuiltForTheWild

YETI PRESENTS | MALIK: Watch the film at the link in our bio. “It’s kind of serendipitous that I’ve lived my life in a way that even when I was at my lowest, I knew that I was somebody, and there was more out there in the world for me. While filming, I was pushed far beyond what I thought were my limits and abilities. During Conrad and I’s expedition, I survived storms on the side of the mountain, encountered a grizzly bear (and lived to tell the story), and climbed to higher heights than I could have ever imagined. I am forever grateful for the bonds Conrad and I forged over the years and to be in his circle of influence.” – @malikthamartian “When Malik and I met in 2018, we realized we were cut from the same cloth — a cloth that unfortunately included loss. Over the years, Malik and I have become closer and our friendship has grown to include my sons Max, Sam, and Isaac. When Max and Malik dreamed up a film, I was excited to share what our friendship brings and help create a dialogue of understanding and compassion. And that’s good thing.” – Ambassador @conrad_anker #BuiltForTheWild
