Shishapangma
Shishapangma (14th Highest in the World)
Climbing Period: September and October
Altitude: 8013m / 26,289ft
Routes: "North-West Face and North Ridge" (Normal Route).
Meagan did not attempt Shishapangma due to the reported condition of the summit ridge.
The cornice along the summit ridge is known to be dangerous and often impassable.
As a result, Meagan headed to Ama Dablam. She was heading there very early in the season,
but what better way to spend two weeks! Better to try than to wonder!
Meagan will be preparing a page on her Ama Dablam climb. She will also be looking
into creating an expedition for 2010 or 2011, that will be open to the public to
join. STAY TUNED! MORE TO FOLLOW ON AMA DABLAM!!
