EXCLUSIVE: Taylorsville climber becomes oldest woman to summit Bolivia's highest peak

SAJAMA, Peru () — A climber from Taylorsville has become the oldest woman to reach the summit of Sajama, Bolivia's highest point. On June 4, Carol Masheter, 78, climbed Nevada Sajama during an expedition through the mountains of Bolivia. Just days earlier, Masheter climbed the summit of Acotango, another peak near the Bolivia-Chile border, making her the oldest person (male of female) to do so. Carol Masheter becomes the oldest woman to scale the highest point in Bolivia (Courtesy: Carol Masheter) 'I've been saying 'one more tall peak' for the last 20 years, and I just can't seem to stop I just love it so much,' Masheter told The Summit of Sajama stands 21,462 feet high, and few can say they've reached the top. However, this is far from Masheter's first climb. The first mountain she climbed was in Bolivia in 1997, which is where she learned to adapt to high altitudes and cold weather. By 2008, Masheter summited Mount Everest as a 61-year-old. She says it took about 11 hours to complete the climb. Over 100 conservation organizations urge US Senate to stop sale of public lands Masheter says she after a life-changing event at the age of 50 and encourages aspiring climbers to get out and try it. Now 78 years old, she faces new challenges while climbing. Coming off Sajama was particularly difficult for Masheter, who referred to that leg of the journey as 'the night of 1,000 falls.' 'Instead of thinking about the summit, think about what you need to do in the next five minutes, what you need to do in the next hour, and where you need to be by the end of the day… your goal kind of takes care of itself,' she said. Climbing was not the only adventure of the trip. Masheter was accompanied by Professor Akiko Kamimura of the University of Utah, who went to Bolivia to collect data for a research project. When they weren't climbing, Kamimura and Masheter visited lagunas just outside of La Paz where they found flamingos, llamas, and alpacas Professor Kamimura invited her to come back next year to summit Sajama again. Masheter says she'll have to check with her doctor before braving the journey one more time.

Rimo3 Empowers Microsoft Intune Users with New App Management Automation

NEW YORK, June 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Rimo3, a leader in Windows Workspace Management, today announced the launch of a powerful new capability designed to transform how enterprise IT teams manage applications in Microsoft Intune. These new features address the significant challenges IT administrators face when transitioning from traditional SCCM to cloud-based Intune environments. This new capability bridges the gap between the mature functionalities of SCCM and the modern approach of Intune by providing features that enhance efficiency, visibility, and control over application deployment and management. The solution enables IT teams to deploy applications at scale with significantly fewer clicks, implement phased rollouts, and automate routine maintenance tasks—all while providing an Intune like experience & maintaining comprehensive audit trails by leveraging Rimo3's application intelligence data. "As organisations accelerate their move to cloud-native endpoint management, we consistently hear from IT administrators about the friction they experience when transitioning from SCCM to Intune," said Dr. James Graham, Chief Product Officer at Rimo3. "With this new capability, we're bringing back the control and efficiency they're accustomed to while embracing modern management. Our solution eliminates the impossible choices IT teams face between speed, security, and user experience." The Intune product addresses several critical pain points for IT administrators: Manual, Repetitive Processes: Eliminates tedious clicking through multiple Intune screens by enabling bulk assignment and deployment actions from a single interface Large-Scale Rollout Challenges: Supports phased deployments with flexible triggers (manual, scheduled, or immediate) to manage risk during application rollouts Inconsistent Execution: Standardised workflows with structured actions and comprehensive audit trails Limited Visibility: Surfaces Rimo3's application validation data directly in the browser, providing insights into what applications install and whether they'll run properly before deployment Cleaning and Maintenance: Automates the removal of application group assignments on schedule or on-demand Early access customers have reported significant efficiency gains, with some seeing up to 90% reduction in time spent on routine application management tasks. "The typical Intune administrator can spend up to 20 hours weekly on manual validation and application management," noted Samit Halvadia, CTO at Rimo3. "This new capability gives that time back to IT teams, allowing them to focus on strategic initiatives rather than repetitive tasks. It's about installing confidence in IT teams navigating the complex terrain of workspace modernisation." This new capability is available now as part of the Rimo3 platform.
