Philippe’s Kangchenjunga success

Berghaus athlete and mountaineer Philippe Gatta has successfully summited Kangchenjunga, the least climbed of the Himalayan 8,000m plus mountains. Philippe set off for the 8,586m summit on 13th May, battling harsh wind conditions along the way him and his team eventually reached the summit from camp four in 11 hours.
