Priyanka Mohite becomes first Indian woman to scale peak
Three mountaineers from the city scaled the 10th highest mountain peak in the world
Annapurna-1 on April 16. Bhagwan Chawale, Sumeet Mandale and Jitendra Gaware were accompanied by two climbers from Mumbai and an Everester from Satara, Priyanka Mohite (26). Incidentally, Mohite became the first Indian woman to scale the peak after the successful ascent.
