Cho Oyu

About the productJapanese

Naoki Ishikawa is the first photographer in history to have climbed all 14 of the 8,000m peaks this fall. In 2023, he climbed his 13th peak, Cho Oyu, towering over the border between Nepal and Tibet, and recorded the entire trip under extreme conditions with a medium-format camera.

Mingma Gyalje, my friend and always-joking Sherpa, who is also the leader of our expedition, clasped her hands together in prayer the moment Cho Oyu came into view through the gaps in the clouds. We were just about to reach the entrance to the glacier from the Tibetan plains. I had never seen Mingma with her back like that before, and it was then that I realized for the first time that Cho Oyu was a special mountain to the Sherpas. (Omitted)
At that time, he must have been praying to the head of the great god who had been watching over his ancestors' migration. That was the only way I could see it. --From the book "Journey to Cho Oyu"
