Manaslu
1999 8163m (26758ft) Himalayas, Nepal
Summit: April 22, 1999
Unlike Everest base camp, where more than 300 climbers live in a crowded city of tents, there are very few people at the Manaslu base camp. Because of the mysterious, undocumented nature of the mountain, Ed and his sole partner, Veikka Gustafsson, have to rely on gut instinct to plot their path to the summit.
