Jennifer  Jordan

“Climbers often espouse a purer style of ascent while readily depending on the supplies, lines, and oxygen of larger teams. This is particularly true on K2, where climbers often denounce those who join “assault”-style expeditions for not being true mountaineers, but “austere” alpine climbers often utilize, even demand, the supplies and strength of those larger, well-equipped teams when trouble hits high on the mountain.”
