一名挪威女子正试图成为最快登顶14座最高山峰的登山者。
Kristin Harila has already climbed eight of them in 40 days. The 37-year-old said Tuesday she has set a new goal of climbing all 14 peaks in three months. That is two times faster than her initial goal.
克里斯汀·哈利拉已经在40天内登上了其中8座高峰。这名37岁的女性周二表示,她已经设定了一个新的目标,即在三个月内征服所有14座高峰。这比她最初的目标快了两倍。
The 14 highest mountains are those higher than 8,000 meters. Harila is trying to beat the 2019 record set by a male climber, who climbed all 14 peaks in just over six months.
这14座高峰海拔都在8000米以上。哈利拉正试图打破一名男性登山者在2019年创下的纪录,该登山者在短短六个多月内登上了所有14座高峰。
Harila hopes to climb Mount Manaslu in Nepal in the next few days. After that, she will try the five remaining peaks in the Karakorum mountains of Pakistan. This includes K2, the second- highest mountain in the world. K2 is considered more difficult and dangerous than Mount Everest, the world's highest mountain.
哈利拉希望在接下来的几天内登上尼泊尔的马纳斯鲁峰。之后,她将尝试登上巴基斯坦喀喇昆仑山脉中剩下的五座高峰。其中包括世界第二高峰乔戈里峰。乔戈里峰被认为比全球最高峰珠穆朗玛峰更困难、更危险。
"I believe we can do it, if we do Manaslu now and the five in Pakistan, we can do in three months," Harila said.
哈利拉说:“我相信我们可以做到,如果我们现在登上马纳斯鲁峰以及巴基斯坦的5座高峰,我们就可以在三个月内做到。”
"We are very happy we have made eight and we are all safe and everyone is good," she added.
她补充道:“我们很高兴我们已经登顶了8座高峰,我们都很安全,每个人状态都很好。”
Harila began her effort in April by climbing Mount Shishapangma in China. She then climbed other peaks in China as well as in Nepal, including Everest. Her latest climb was Nepal's Mount Annapurna on June 5.
哈利拉于4月开始攀登中国的希夏邦马峰。然后,她攀登了中国和尼泊尔的其他山峰,包括珠穆朗玛峰。她最近一次攀登是6月5日登上尼泊尔的安那普拉峰。
Her climb of Annapurna was unusually late in the spring climbing season. Most teams had already left the mountains. That is because it was close to the arrival of summer rains and snow.
她攀登安那普拉峰的时间在春季登山季节中非常晚。大多数登山队都已经离开了这座山峰。这是因为当时正值夏雨和大雪的来临。
"It was very nice but very difficult to climb Annapurna alone. No one was around, it was different. When there is lot of people it is much easier," she said.
她说:“独自攀登安那普拉峰很爽,但是很困难。周围一个人都没有,情况就不一样了。人多的时候要容易得多。”
The current record is held by Nirmal Purja, a Nepal-born British citizen. He climbed the 14 highest peaks in 189 days in 2019.
目前的记录是由出生在尼泊尔的英国公民尼玛尔·普贾保持。2019年,他在189天内攀登了14座最高峰。
Purja's climbs were later made into a popular Netflix documentary called "14 Peaks: Nothing is Impossible."
普贾的攀登壮举后来被网飞公司拍成了一部颇受欢迎的纪录片,名为《征服14座高峰:凡事皆可能》。
