Have we had a thread about the late mountaineer Alison Hargreaves - her son wants to climb K2 in winter

Daily Mail story

If even half of what they are reporting is true, it is a truly tragic story.

She was abused by her husband throughout her marriage. Her husband is now supporting their son's plans to climb K2 in winter, a plan that all experts have dismissed as foolhardy and extremely dangerous.

Was she really abused by her husband? I haven't heard that before.

its in the link I didn't realise either

According to the DM she was and they quote her diaries.

The boy is only 15yo. Surely someone would step in and stop this idiotic idea.

He is 21. His mother died 15 years ago.

Ah. You are correct. Sorry misread that.
