30 y/o Japanese Kuriki Nobukazu, just left Everest West Ridge High Camp for summit. No one has tried what he is doing: West Ridge, alone, no supplemental oxygen AND in the Fall. There is only one other team on Everest, Korean and a Polish team for Lhotse. So extremely unique. This is Nobukazu's 4th Fall attempt on Everest. The West Ridge is one of the most dangerous Everest routes with only been 5 summits via the West Ridge with 9 deaths.
