First Australian to Summit ALL Fourteen 8000m Peaks!

Mountain Hardwear - Andrew Lock

Mountain Hardwear Alpinist Andrew Lock Summits Shisha Pangma!

Oct 4, 2009 - 15:50
By Mountain Hardwear Athlete, Andrew Lock

Did it! Summitted the true summit of Shishapangma at 5.05pm, 2nd October, with Neil Ward.

Very tough climb via a variation of the Inaki route on the north face, caught in a storm on descent with an open bivouac at 7600 metres without equipment thrown in for good measure.

Just into basecamp now, bit tired, more later.
