They Want to Rename Annapurna for Nims Purja. Here's Why That's Wrong.

After the Broad Peak avalanche that took ten lives, the municipality where Nirmal Purja was born proposed renaming Annapurna I in his honor, to Nimsdai Annapurna. In this video I trace the epic of the mountain itself — the 1950 French first ascent and the cost it took from Maurice Herzog — and the right way to honor Nimsdai without un-naming a goddess. **THANK YOU TO OUR HIGH ALTITUDE SPONSORS**: CAMP FOUR: John V.
