Mount Everest 2009 - Jarle Traa from Norway tries to reach the top on Everest`s north side!
2009-11-26
Norwegian Jarle Traa, Jarle Trå, is on his way to ascend Mount Everest from its north side. He is well acclimated after climbing Elbrus twice. Jarle will do it in the way he did on Mount Everest earlier this year, from Shisha in 2006 and Cho Oyu in 2004: climb independent with no Sherpa and no supplementary oxygen support. It`s a risky attemp. Will Jarle make it?
