The latest twist in this continuing saga is that Jon Gangdal has come forward with a photo of Kangchenjunga showing a rock dome near the summit, approximately 7-8 meters below the summit. //kr.news.yahoo.com/sports/golf/view?aid=2010090214381117315. This is consistent with Oh's claim that she had to descend 5-10 meters below the summit to take a pic, and inconsistent with Pasaban's claim that there are no rocks near the summit. Did Pasaban really climb Kanchenjunga?
I'm sorry but yr link does not go anywhere. Pls provide a proper link to let us view the photo. Anyway rock or no rock is beside the point. Oh could not adequately explain why her flag was planted so far below the summit, in fact she could hardly remember why the flag was where it was, using the world 'maybe'.
If its Jon Gangdal's words against the disputing sherpas' words, I would of course believe the Serpas becos Jon was believing Oh only based on faith not physical evidence.
I know u wish to side with Oh simply becos she is korean and you are probably korean too, am I right ?
.. but u should be more objective to view the physical evidences such as the flag's location, the Sherpas' witness accounts, the lack of photos to support Oh etc. Even Hawley had to put the word "disputed" on Oh's achievements, and the Korean climbing body has denounced her claims ..
@uuduu7 i think you are right. she should scale the mountain once again, only if to show where the pic was taken. If she did, great; if she didn't, she owes a huge apology to pasaban.
@cooljeansguy Pasaban argued against Oh beacause she knew that it was impossible climb Kangchengjunga the day that Oh said have it done, because the weather. The pics of Oh also seems sunny. Many of the climbs of Oh are under suspicion, but that of Kangchengjunga is obviously false... 8 climbs over 8000 in 2 years... sure!... she said that no use oxygen but too many people says that she use... she is a very big cheater
@iSPaLiTo This is a sheenegan by one mountaineer to the wold world, the business nature of mountaineering, the type of cheaters in the mountaineering community, etc.
Aupa Edurne, hay mucha gente abajo que SI cree en ti y en la labor que estas haciendo, de difusión del alpinismo, del esfuerzo, de la belleza de las cumbres, y de tantas cosas, de verdad, gracias por todo ello

..
I suggest Oh shld to conclusively scale the disputed mountain another time, just to show that she can do it without a doubt.
After all climbing shld not be about the vanity of pursuing a title right ?
