Three of my favorite mountains viewed from a 5000 meter high perch - Huascaran Sur, Huascaran Norte, and Chopicalqui. #acsp #alpinescience #americanclimberscience #americanclimberscienceprogram #cordillerablanca #climberscience #huascarannationalpark #icefall #meriwwu #mountainscience #mountainenvironmentsresearchinstitute #mountaininstitute #peru #wwu #wwumeri https://www.instagram.com/p/BzlvFptJq4_/?igshid=18yqm07e47zn

We reached Laguna Chirrup and one of my students was crying. ‘What’s wrong? I asked. ‘It’s just so beautiful that I’m crying tears of happiness’ she said. When leading expeditions, the data is great, but showing people how wonderful our world can be is the true joy. #acsp #alpinescience #americanclimberscience #americanclimberscienceprogram #cordillerablanca #climberscience #huascarannationalpark #icefall #meriwwu #mountainscience #mountainenvironmentsresearchinstitute #mountaininstitute #peru #wwu #wwumeri https://www.instagram.com/p/BzYE93oJq0k/?igshid=1xkkefd9axd5w

Pastoruri -death of a glacier. 1986, 2001, 2012. And then 2019 - yesterday from the same location. It hurts my heart to see the mountains melting away... #acsp #alpinescience #americanclimberscience #americanclimberscienceprogram #cordillerablanca #climberscience #huascarannationalpark #icefall #meriwwu #mountainscience #mountainenvironmentsresearchinstitute #mountaininstitute #peru #wwu #wwumeri https://www.instagram.com/p/BzVaqsmpJb6/?igshid=1xcjyl1it9nsx

Hoarfrost kept making these ice cicles that dangled off of my eye lashes and eye brows. Very distracting and made it tough to see. But if I tried to pull them off, my lashes painfully went with them... #acsp #alpinescience #americanclimberscience #americanclimberscienceprogram #climberscience #icefall #meriwwu #mountainscience #mountainenvironmentsresearchinstitute #mountaininstitute #wwu #wwumeri #everest #everestenvironmentsexpedition #sherpa #lhotse #nepal #everest #mteverest https://www.instagram.com/p/ByNEPBYJ-zx/?igshid=t5dnd5wn87yy

Summit of Lhotse 8,516 metres (27,940 ft). The blizzard hit us a few minutes after this shot and everything went whiteout. The summit block is maybe 5.6, but the body of a Russian climber blocks the easiest ascent. A brutal, but simple and pure location on earth.... #acsp #alpinescience #americanclimberscience #americanclimberscienceprogram #climberscience #icefall #meriwwu #mountainscience #mountainenvironmentsresearchinstitute #mountaininstitute #wwu #wwumeri #everest #everestenvironmentsexpedition #sherpa #lhotse #nepal #everest #mteverest https://www.instagram.com/p/ByB5_luJoqQ/?igshid=1bbyo2v1ty3jm

Summit push begins tomorrow night and hoping for a May 23rd summit. We’ll see what the weather gives us... #acsp #alpinescience #americanclimberscience #americanclimberscienceprogram #climberscience #icefall #meriwwu #mountainscience #mountainenvironmentsresearchinstitute #mountaininstitute #wwu #wwumeri #everest #everestenvironmentsexpedition #sherpa #lhotse #nepal #everest #mteverest https://www.instagram.com/p/BxjNYgNpGry/?igshid=1549rpvmppza3
