In 2024 two of my most important High Asian chronicle teachers would have been 100 years old, Anders Bolinder on May 18th and Józef Nyka on December 5th. I wonder, why they were not been honored within the climbing community, it seems they are forgotten or even unknown.

2024 was a very important or at least interesting year for 8000ers climbing. 11 male and 8 female climbers finished the 14 8K Main-Peaks! Alltogether they corrected 19 of their earlier wrong summits accepting the logical «rule» that only the highest reachable point counts as summited.

The brothers Mingma (already in 2023) and Chhang Dawa finished the true summits as the first brothers after correcting two false summits from long ago and despite they are already in the legacy table, where no wrong summit was noted and which counts forever after the pioneer era needed to be finished for style and historic reasons. So the insults and lies about me and my/our work from some mountaineers were totally unnecessary and they should apologize for the dangerous shit storm that they created against me after a confirmed giant boulevard press misinformation. In the mean time the new era table is widely recognized and climbers have no excuses for stopping before the true high points.

Also the first brother and sister pair finished last year, Dawa Gyalje and Dawa Yangzum and just some weeks ago Jorge Egocheaga finished after correcting three false summits. You can see the details within the table

I post this New Era table updated to April 7th 2025 for the climbing community and hope for helpful support again. Do not avoid the donation table upper right on the homepage. Thank you in advance!

There is no knowledge so far about the appearances on top of Shisha Pangma on October 9th 2024, but the community might be able to help and I correct what is possible.

The other five updated Main tables (Table with female ascents with at least 3 Main-Peaks, Transition table, Nations table, Nations table/female and Main corrections on Manaslu table) are updated as well and available per request.
