Talk with Nathalie Fortin : from 4000 m to 8848 m <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nathalie Fortin often receives many questions after her high-altitude expeditions: “You must have been in amazing shape after Everest with all those red blood cells!” or “Why did you use fixed ropes when descending Everest?” During this talk, she will share her firsthand experiences on various mountains around the world (Alaska, South America, France, Kyrgyzstan, Nepal, Pakistan, the Canadian Rockies, and Russia). She will discuss the unique challenges of climbing mountains at different altitudes, including effects on the body, preparation, and lessons learned. This will be a relaxed evening\u2014no exact science, just the shared experiences of each person’s journey. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nathalie Fortin, mountaineer and speaker :<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nathalie began climbing in 1992 and ventured into mountaineering in 1996 in the Canadian Rockies. An engineer by training and an environmental project manager for the federal government, she has summited peaks worldwide, from the 4,000-meter mountains in Western Canada to the summit of Everest (8,848 m). Her mountaineering journey led her to guide expeditions on Mount Elbrus in Russia in 2014 and on Lenin Peak in Kyrgyzstan, reflecting her desire to help others push beyond their limits. Nathalie shares her expertise and passion through motivational talks at schools and companies, and she participates in various media and community events. She is actively involved in the climbing community, especially in supporting women as they take on their first ice climbing and dry tooling experiences, empowering them to become self-sufficient. She founded the Facebook group “Des femmes et des lames,” which helps women connect with partners for these pursuits. An annual award in her name is given to a woman who has made a significant impact through her ascents and commitment to the climbing community. Recognized as a leading figure in ice climbing and mountaineering in Quebec and Canada, Nathalie is an inspiring role model for many mountain enthusiasts. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
