There was no looking back for this determined young girl after that. Before completing her college
degree, Santosh Yadav got herself enrolled at Uttarkashi’s Nehru Institute of Mountaineering. As
soon as she completed her last semester in Jaipur, she had to rush straight to the Institute and had
no time to visit home. So, she wrote her father a letter apologizing for not having sought his
permission before joining the Institute.
During this training, she went for an expedition each year. Her climbing skills matured rapidly.
Also, she developed a remarkable resistance to cold and the altitude. Endowed with an iron will,
physical endurance and an amazing mental toughness, she proved herself repeatedly. In 1992,
after training for four years, she became the youngest woman in the world to conquer Mt. Everest
at the age of 22. Her physical and mental strength impressed her seniors, while her team spirit and
concern for others endeared her to her fellow climbers. Santosh provided special care to a fellow
climber in critical condition at South Col, who unfortunately could not be saved. However, she
managed to save Mohan Singh, who too was in distress, by sharing her oxygen with him.

iii) What did Santosh do after being motivated by the mountaineers to take to climbing?
