I highly recommend his Netflix docufilm. He’s incredible, along with his team and the Sherpa community. They deserve all the recognition and appreciation.

If you go hiking in the mountains without a certain knowledge and awareness……..then you get what you're asking for. Hypoxemia means you have a condition of deficient oxygen. It occurs at high altitudes where less and less oxygen is available the higher you climb.
