Earlier today we shared several stories involving Lhotse, the next-door neighbor of Everest. In this video, youβll go up the mountain to get a look at the surrounding region from must below the summit, including the view back down the approach to the top, and images of Everest itself. As you look across to the tallest mountain on the planet, youβll also see the ridge that connects the two mountains. That ridge is the way that Ueli Steck will traverse the two summits later this spring. The clip was shot back in 2008, but will still give you an indication of what heβll face in a month and a half. Obviously not a project for the faint of heart.
