The allure of the unexplored lies at the very core of what adventure is all about. For many, simply exploring places that are new to us as individuals is tremendously exciting. To tread where no humans have ever gone before, well, that’s another level, isn’t it?
Even today, as we find ourselves firmly ensconced in the 21st century, more than 50 years since we first set foot on the Moon, there are mountains on our planet that are unclimbed. It’s an exciting thought – there are still very real, pioneering adventures to be had out there. Many of the world’s greatest unclimbed mountains are still unclaimed because national governments have forbidden mountaineering due to their spiritual significance. This is the case for well-known peaks like Machapuchare and Mount Kailash.
