Listen to this episode of Intersections with Prof. Hitendra Wadhwa in conversation with National Geographic Adventurer of the Year (2018) and Captain of the North Face Athlete Team, Hilaree Nelson. Hilaree is the first woman to summit two 8,000 meter peaks, Everest and Lhotse (fourth-highest) in one 24-hour push. She has climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro with a broken leg, and skied from the summit of the world’s sixth-highest mountain (26,906-foot Cho Oyu) without supplemental oxygen—leading Outside Magazine to name her “one of the most adventurous women in the world of sports” and Men’s Journal to name her “one of the most adventurous women of the last 25 years.”
