Andrew Lock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Andrew Lock, hospital<\/a> the eminent Australian climber who has climbed all 14 8000m peaks has made a startling announcement for this upcoming 2010 spring season:<\/p>\n

Andrew plans to return to Mt Everest in the pre-monsoon season (April-May) of 2010 to complete one final climb in his Summit 8000 project. Having climbed all fourteen of the world\u2019s 8000 metre mountains, medicine<\/a> his plan is to summit Mt Everest for a third time but this climb will be a traverse from Tibet to Nepal, <\/a> oxygenless.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This will be interesting since I have been told that the Chinese are not issuing permits for a traverse. But Andrew is one not to be told no. He is an amazing individual and a talented speaker and climber. This would an appropriate finish for his quest and I hope he does it.<\/p>\n

I wish him the of luck. You can follow his progress via his website<\/a><\/p>\n

Climb On!<\/p>\n
