Alberto Iñurrategi

Alberto Iñurrategi (born 1968) is a Basque Spanish mountaineer from Aretxabaleta in Gipuzkoa who in 2002, aged 33, became the 10th person, and then the youngest, to climb all 14 eight-thousanders. He was the second Basque and Spaniard after Juanito Oiarzabal and the fourth person to climb all 14 without bottled oxygen. He climbed twelve of them with his brother Felix, who died on the descent from Gasherbrum II in January 2000, using alpine style with few lines or sherpas. He has produced climbing documentaries including Gure Himalaya, Hire Himalaya, dedicated to his brother, and Annapurna: sueño y vacío. In 2017 the Spanish Consejo Superior de Deportes recognised him, with Juan Vallejo and Mikel Zabalza, for rescuing Valerio Annovazzi from Gasherbrum II.
