To Be First: The Quest for Yangmolong
Among the last unclimbed peaks on earth there stands a little-known mountain in a remote region of China. A climbing expedition makes three attempts over the span of three years to summit the 6060-meter Yangmolong Mountain. Threatened by local villagers, challenged by unpredictable weather and dangerous rock and ice falls, the climbers must decide whether to give up or commit fully to their quest.
