I consider them top athletes; it is nice that they are finally getting the recognition. They deserve it more than anyone else. Btw how was your experience in Himalayas, which region?
For sure. My brother and i did a 2k (vertical) hike when we stopped in sachu beginning at about 15.5k and i was working! 😮💨 Experience was incredible. Shimla to leh on bikes via a few high passes. Really mind blowing. Was it you i saw was there a little earlier ?
Leh! I literally spent my childhood near Leh, Ladakh. I studied for some time in Himachal state, city next to Shimla, when I was in India. 😅 Those are undoubtedly the best places. If you have any plans for the next climbing season, let me know. We can plan something.
