Simone Moro is travelling with Pemba Gelje Sherpa in hopes to acclimatize on Mera Peak in preparation for Manaslu, one of the world’s 14 8,000-metre peaks.
Moro has climbed the following in winter: Shishapangma (2005), Makalu (2009), Gasherbrum II (2011) and Nanga Parbat (2016), which would make Manaslu his fifth.
Moro first tried Manaslu in the winter of 2015 with Tamara Lunger.
