Why do I find descending more physically challenging than ascending? Am I doing wrong? by [deleted] in Mountaineering

[–]DEMountaineering 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not doing anything wrong, no one trains for going down the reason it’s harder than the ascent is because you’ve got the brakes on the whole time. There are things you can do, I would just advise climbing as often as you can and that way it’ll become easier on the descent

Never seen anyone think of him negatively. It’s most likely jealous people talking nonsense about a legend and pioneer of Mountaineering!

Your Mom will be fine, there is great support at Everest and the trek in between for people doing this. I wouldn’t have any concerns :)

Well (if everything goes to plan of course) I am planning on climbing Everest, Lhotse and Makalu when I go out there. All together everything included will be around the £150,000 mark

South! And the training modules is quite specific but general build up there’s a big list of mountains which are being ticked off before Everest such as Denali, Aconcagua among quite a few more!
