Jon Krakauer Instagram – Breaking trail at sunrise on May 10, 1996, looking down from 27,600 feet on Everest at my guide, Mike Groom. 2nd photo: Tenzing Norgay and Sir Edmund Hillary after their first ascent of Everest on May 29, 1953 (Getty photo). Don’t forget that on October 26 the American Himalayan Foundation will be celebrating the 70th anniversary of their momentous climb at our Infamous Annual Dinner in San Francisco. Featured speakers include Norbu Tenzing (son of Tenzing), Peter Hillary (son of Sir Ed), Kami Rita Sherpa, (who’s climbed Everest 28 times), plus @Kristin.Harila, @Conrad_Anker, and other luminaries. I hope to see you there! (I’m the board chair of @HimalayanFdn) Hit link in my profile for info. | Posted on 17/Oct/2023 01:52:42
