T<\/span>he American Alpine Club<\/a>, “the largest community of rock-scaling misfits in the country<\/em>” as they describe themselves, <\/span>created a series of videos called Legacy Series<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0to pay tribute to the visionary climbers who made the sport what it is today and stands as a commitment to securing their legacies. Episodes five and six of the series are focusing on Tom Hornbein<\/strong> and Jim McCarthy<\/strong>. A mountaineer that did the 1963 ascent of the West Ridge of Everest and a climber who shaped the birth of modern ice climbing ( and helped save Camp 4 from being shut down in the 1990s).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The last episode that aired is about Arlene Blum<\/strong>, part of the first American and first all-female ascent of Annapurna in 1978. In the video, she reflects more deeply on the tragedy of the ascent.<\/span><\/p>\n
