What Is Sherpa About?
The premise of Sherpa without spoilers.
On Mount Everest, the close relationship between European climbers and the vital Sherpa guides fractured amidst summit successes and growing tensions. A physical altercation at a high altitude in 2013 gained international attention, but the following year brought tragedy when a devastating avalanche claimed the lives of sixteen Sherpa climbers. This event forced a profound reconsideration of the Sherpas' essential role in the Everest climbing industry and highlighted the risks they face.
