Rob Hall

Robert Edwin «Rob» Hall CBE (Christchurch, 14 de enero de 1961-Monte Everest, 11 de mayo de 1996) fue un montañero neozelandés conocido por ser el líder principal de la expedición al monte Everest de 1996 en la que él, un compañero guía y dos clientes fallecieron. Jon Krakauer dio cuenta de la expedición en su libro Into Thin Air, y los hechos fueron representados en la película del 2015 Everest. Al momento de su muerte, Hall había completado su quinta ascensión al Everest, más que cualquier otro montañero no sherpa. Hall conoció a la que sería su futura esposa, Jan Arnold, una doctora neozelandesa, durante un intento de ascenso al Everest en 1990. Leer más en Wikipedia
