3. BACHHENDRI PAL
Was the first Indian woman
to climb to the summit of Mt.
Everest, in 1984. Her father
was a border tradesman who
took atta and rice from India
to Tibet on mules, horses and
goats. He eventually settled
near Uttarkashi, where he
married and they raised their
five children. Bachhendri, the
middle child, was born in
1954.

4. Always a rebellious child, she loved wandering by herself
in the Garhwal Himalayas. Her family was often
entertained by her dreams of travelling in airplanes and
meeting famous people. She was independent and fearless,
and first tasted the excitement of the high altitudes when a
group of 12-year-old classmates climbed to 4000m (13123
feet) during a picnic, could not come down by nightfall,
and spent the night there without food or shelter.
At 13, like most Garhwal girls she was expected to leave
school and help in the house, but she studied on her own at
night until her determination impressed her family to let
her finish high school. She still earned money by sewing in
her spare time. The principal of her school persuaded her
family to send her to

5. college, where she beat both boys and girls in
rifle shooting and other competitions.
Her B.A. thrilled her parents, who wanted her
to be the first girl in the village with a higher
degree. She eventually an M.A. in Sanskrit
and then a B.Ed. In spite of these
achievements the job offers that came in were
only for low-paid .

7. TRAINING NEEDED
FOR
MOUNTAINEERING

8. Building strength-
Bodyweight training is a great
place to begin if you're not
already fit, including exercises
such as pushups, pullups, dips,
squats, and lunges.

9. Increasing Stamina-
Increasing your stamina is a
huge piece of training for
mountain climbing.

10. Altitude Training-
Increase our efficiency at
altitude is to actually train at
altitude, which may not be an
easy option. In addition, it can
take days for a body to
acclimate to high altitude.

11. Climb, Climb, Climb-
Even with the best of physical
training preparations, the real
test is when the boots meet
the rock, and one of the best
ways to train is, you guessed
it, to go climbing. Climb often,
climb hard, and climb smart.
