Everest

In 1988 Lydia became the first woman in the world to climb Mt Everest without supplementary oxygen. She remains the only New Zealander to have climbed Everest without oxygen. In 2008 Lydia successfully guided Everest, reaching the summit for the second time, on 24 May, at 5am. She joins the ranks of the very few women (only 3) ever to have guided Everest, and becomes the only New Zealand woman to have climbed it twice.

Speaking / Experiences / Personality

Lydia enjoys imparting the ideas and philosophies developed through a wide range of experiences and wisdom gained through unusual events; and she is able to do this through giving presentations, and mountain guiding.

Why Do You Climb?
Often asked why she climbs mountains; Lydia describes her love of nature, the simplicity and meaningfulness of life in the outdoors and the sharing of experiences with other people that attract her to the mountains.
