If you haven’t heard of Ziemski, don’t feel bad. Ziemski’s relative anonymity in the world of high-altitude mountaineering is intentional. Unlike many climbers, Ziemski does not maintain a presence on social media, and he does not have a portfolio of brands sponsoring his exploits and plastering him across the Internet. “I’m not a mountaineer at all,” Ziemski, 37, told…
