I caught up with German Alpinist Jost Kobusch, who now lives in Chamonix, France to discuss his upcoming winter, no O's, solo attempt of Everest's West Ridge. This exact style and the route had never been attempted or accomplished.
In 2019, Jost tagged his high point at 7,329-meters/23,750-feet. He said before starting the expedition, he would be pleased to tag 8,000-meters so he got close. This time he is again targeting 8,000-meters and I hope he reaches the summit.
We cover a range of topics from how he got into climbing, what he learned from his 2019 attempt, what he's doing differently this time, his style of solo, no O's and more. I think you'll enjoy meeting this 29-year-old climber.
Climb On!
