    Alison's last mountain

    Alison's last mountain

    Christopher Terrill (1996)

    The documentary follows Jim Ballard and his two young children (Kate and Tom Ballard) as they visit K2, the mountain on which his wife, the climber Alsion Hargreaves, died in 1995. Alison was a British mountain climber. Her accomplishments included scaling Mount Everest alone, without supplementary oxygen or support from a Sherpa team, in 1995. She soloed all the great north faces of the Alps in a single season. In 1995, Hargreaves intended to climb the three highest mountains in the world—Mount Everest, K2, and Kangchenjunga—unaided. She succeeded on Everest, but she died while descending from the summit of K2.
