On October 15, 2025, American mountaineer Jim Morrison became the first person to ski down Mount Everest’s Hornbein Couloir. The deep, narrow chute begins at roughly 26,000 feet (8,000 m) on the mountain’s north face, west of the summit. Most of it is extremely steep, with slopes that reach about 60 degrees near the top. Morrison’s party was only the sixth expedition to climb that route and the first successful one since 1991.
