Update: October 11th - Miss the event last night? Head over to UStream and watch the recorded show. It is well worth it.​

Tune in tonight at 10 p.m. to watch The North Face speaker series with team members who tackled the first ascent of the Shark's Fin on India's Mount Meru.

Listen to Alpinist: Conrad Anker, Alpinist and photographer: Jimmy Chin, and Rock Climber and Filmmaker: Renan Ozturk.

The east face of India’s Mount Meru, an ice-coated granite fang in the Himalayas, defied climbers for two generations. The saga of its ascent by Conrad Anker, Jimmy Chin and Renan Ozturk, is the stuff of legend. In 2008, the threesome endured a humbling defeat in the face of endless storm. Three years later, grit and determination brought the team back to complete the climb. In this exclusive event, the trio will recount the tale of their ascent, illustrating the art of suffering and the strength of teamwork.
