Updated:2 years, 4 months ago

Kathmandu (Nepal), March 11 (ANI): Australian climber Allie Pepper has announced her bid to summit Mount Annapurna-I without supplementary oxygen as part of her 14-peak summit bid aimed to be completed within two years. Addressing a press conference here in the national capital on Saturday, the 48-year-old climber from Sydney's Blue Mountains announced that she is preparing for the spring ascent of the 10th highest peak. With the slogan, "The Respect Above the Clouds 14 Peaks No. O2," Allie, with 24 years of experience in different mountains, is now eyeing the 12 remaining peaks. Seven Summit Treks is locally managing her expedition in Nepal, while a small crew is also working hard to document her climb. Pepper wants to complete all 14 peaks without oxygen in the fastest time possible. As per the records, two men in the world have verified ascents of all 14x8000-meter true summits without oxygen. However, the timeframe for completion stands quite wide, with 16 years for completion.
