American Runner Tyler Andrews Bags Manaslu FKT » Explorersweb

Sep 19, 2024 | explorersweb.com | Angela Benavides |Kristine De Abreu |Jilli Cluff

American Tyler Andrews summited Manaslu today shortly before 1:30 pm, in a nine-hour and 52-minute blitz from Base Camp. He has smashed the FKT (fastest known time) record on the mountain. Pemba Gelje Sherpa broke the previous mark last year. The American trail runner took advantage of his early arrival at Base Camp and the quick fixing of the ropes. A sherpa team finished fixing the lines to the summit yesterday. Remarkably, Andrews hadn’t planned to attempt his FTK yet.
New Research Suggests Ancient Earth Had Rings » Explorersweb

Sep 19, 2024 | explorersweb.com | Reynier Squillace |Kristine De Abreu |Angela Benavides |Jilli Cluff

The Earth: a ringed planet, much like Saturn, surrounded by a hula hoop of asteroids. The summit of Mount Everest: a tropical, vibrant paradise replete with frolicking shellfish and warm waters encouraging plentiful life. At least, that’s how it was 465 million years ago in the middle of a period in Earth’s history called the Ordovician. Then, the rocks that now make up the top of Everest sat at the bottom of a shallow sea.

The Expedition Operators Association of Nepal (EOA) assigned Seven Summit Treks to fix the ropes.
Weekend Warm-Up: Sparse, Passionate Storytelling Elevates 'The Artist' » Explorersweb

Jul 13, 2024 | explorersweb.com | Sam Anderson |Angela Benavides |Jilli Cluff

In a crowded field of climbing films that are increasingly hard to tell apart, Mike Call’s The Artist kept me guessing. My notes are tangled and scrawled, and (perhaps largely due to personal reasons) would be stained with saline if I’d been leaning over the paper instead of backward. Can you expect the son of this woman to portray a mundane hero?
Why the Thriving Mississippi Town of Cahokia Disappeared 800 Years Ago » Explorersweb

Jul 13, 2024 | explorersweb.com | Sam Anderson |Angela Benavides |Jilli Cluff

In 1250 AD, a cluster of earthen mounds by the Mississippi River swarming with artisans, farmers, and even astronomers was the place to be. It was known as Cahokia. By 1350, it was a ghost town. Why? Located across the Mississippi River east of modern-day St. Louis, Cahokia was in its day the largest North American city above Mexico. Its 20,000 souls belonged to a group of Algonquian-speaking tribes from across the lower Midwest.

Young Orangutans 'Go to School' For Years to Learn Nest Building " Explorersweb

Jul 12, 2024 | explorersweb.com | Rebecca McPhee |Angela Benavides |Sam Anderson |Jilli Cluff

Sumatran orangutans sleep in intricately built nests high in the trees. They skilfully weave twigs, leaves, and branches daily to create these comfy beds. The craftsmanship takes years to hone, so mothers start teaching their young when they’re just six months old. It takes around seven years of “schooling” for the young orangutans to learn how to engineer a proper nest. These are learned skills, not something a young primate is born knowing how to do, like a weaverbird does.
