Wanda Rutkiewicz once said “I don’t seek death, but I don’t mind if it happens in the mountains. It would be an easy death for me. Many of my friends are waiting for me in the mountains.” Over the span of 30 years, Wanda became arguably the greatest female mountaineer in the world. She climbed the tallest and most difficult mountains around the globe, often becoming one of the first women to eclipse each peak, and on most of her climbs, she would not use supplementary oxygen, marking her accomplishments even more impressive. She was a true alpine climber - someone who set out to climb mountains with only the items she could carry…and did all this between 1962 to 1992. Today climbing one of the 14 8,000 metes peaks is difficult….but many guides, porters, and companies can walk you to the top…this was not how Wanda climbed…
