A German Alpinist has reached a new milestone on his ambitious journey to the top of Mount Everest.
Jost Kobusch, 32, aims to become the first person to climb the world’s tallest mountain in winter, alone and without supplemental oxygen. To prepare for his daunting task, Kobusch has been training by ascending from various points on the mountain, attempting to go further each time to acclimatize his body and mind for the final climb.
