Kishen Mangat aus Boulder Colorado ist neben seinem Beruf als Venture Capitalist ein
äussert passionierter Kletterer und Bergsteiger. Er führt uns durch seine Lebensphilosophie
und Einstellung mit faszinierenden Bildern und nimmt uns mit auf seine Abenteuer in die
schönsten Kletterwände der Welt: Trango Towers in Pakistan, El Capitan im Yosemite Park
und weitere Gipfel in Patagonien, Alaska und den kanadischen Rockies.
In this talk, Kishen Mangat will share stories from a decade of climbing in the world’s great ranges and
his continuing pursuit of alpine objectives well into his forties and fifties. Anchored by his 2021
expedition to Pakistan’s Trango Towers, he will trace key turning points across expeditions from Alaska to
Patagonia, the Canadian Rockies to Yosemite, and his many ascents of the Longs Peak’s Diamond. With
stunning images and candid reflections, Kishen will explore how experience, resilience, and perspective
allow climbers to extend their prime, redefining what is possible in midlife alpinism. More than a
slideshow of peaks, this is a story about longevity, motivation, and the enduring draw of the mountains.
