There's No Crying in Mountaineering (Everest Part 2)
...But there might be a little bit in this episode.
In Everest Part 1, we covered Courtenay's decision to climb Everest, her intense training regimen, her therapist's wisdom, and her acclimatization rotations.
In this episode, we're taking you all the way to the top—29,029 feet up, to be exact! But first, Courtenay drops some "well, actually" truths about the mountain's biggest controversies, from trash to sherpa compensation to...baking soda insurance fraud?!
Finally, we'll hear from Courtenay about the fraught nature of achieving your dreams—and the grief of remembering those climbers who never made it back down.
