Today's interview was with Samina Baig, the first Pakistani woman to summit Mt. Everest and the first Pakistani woman to summit the 7 Summits. This episode was joyful. We talk about the barriers to mountaineering, her journey to climbing Mt. Everest, and her accomplishments since then. We also talk about her new travel company and the work that she and her brother do towards getting youth into the outdoors. Samina talks about how K2 was her hardest peak and how Denali was challenging, and what she plans on doing next.
Her travel company can be found at https://saminabaigtravels.com and Samina and Mirza's outdoor outreach program is https://www.pakistanyouthoutreach.com.
