Один на вершине. Биография самого отчаянного альпиниста нового поколения

Yost Kobush is a German climber and writer. In 2014, he became the youngest climber in the world to summit Ama Dablam solo. In 2015, he planned an oxygen-free ascent of Lhotse, but it was not meant to be due to a major earthquake in Nepal, which Yost covered on his social media. At a relatively young age, the author has already made a splash in the climbing world thanks to his climbing style. To some, Yost may seem like a reckless daredevil, to others—a desperate guy seeking dangerous adventures, but one thing that cannot be denied is his passion for mountains and his adventurous spirit. Yost Kobush has ascended peaks such as: 2014: Ama Dablam (Nepal) — solo, without supplemental oxygen. 2016: Annapurna (Nepal) — without supplemental oxygen. 2017: Nangpai Gosum II (Nepal) — solo, without supplemental oxygen. 2018: New route “Path of Ancestors,” leading to the Carstensz Pyramid (New Guinea). 2019: First ascent of Amotsang (6393 m, Nepal), Damodar Himal. 2021: First ascent of Purbung (6465 m, Nepal) with Nicolas Scheidweiler. 2023: Denali (Alaska) — solo winter ascent via the Messner Couloir. In this book, the author not only talks about his achievements or the lessons he learned during each expedition, but also about the mistakes that could have cost him his life.
