The group of adventurers consists of five Jordanian women: Farah AbuBaker, Abeer Seikaly, Israa Abu-Soufeh, Maria Halaseh, and Iman Al-Majali.
They are of different ages and backgrounds – including a university student and a grandmother – all with various reasons to join this expedition.
They share one unified ultimatum, which is to conquer the highest peak in the world and achieve their mission statement: “To inspire people in our region to defy stereotypes and rise with their communities in pursuit of their dreams, irrespective of their gender, age, and faith.”
