本研究以質性方法中的敘說探究法，研究一名曾經二度登頂世界最高聖母峰的女性登山家－「江仔」(匿名)的生命故事，並研究其生命故事中的關鍵人、事、物對她登山生涯所產生的轉折和影響，以瞭解中當中所含藏的意義與價值。
我以敘說探究的方式與研究對象－「江仔」進行深度訪談，瞭解她登山歷程的生命故事，訪談的資料先轉錄為逐字稿，再進行分析和研究。第一章的緒論之後，在第二章回顧了我所參考的相關文獻，第三章則是研究方法、歷程和書寫的方式。第四章以說故事的形式，呈現「江仔」個人的登山敘說故事，並嵌入第一手的敘說資料，表現出研究參與者的真實情感。第五章是我對於「江仔」登山故事的反思與感想，第六章則是個人的結論與研究建議。
本研究有幾個發現，第一，「江仔」這樣一位出色的登山家，並不是一開始就熱愛爬山，而是在生命的歷程之中，一步步走向山林，慢慢喜歡上登山，愛上爬山。第二，「江仔」成為登山嚮導，參與聖母峰挑戰，再到後來的七頂峰，不是一蹴可幾的過程，也不是一帆風順的結果，而是許多的人、事、物環環相扣，終於成就了登峰造極的輝煌紀錄。第三，在登山的過程中，不但要簽下生死狀，更有幾度在鬼門關前撿回一命的驚險過程，實際與死亡面對面接觸的經歷，讓「江仔」更能領會生命的美好，也更能專心致志，窮有生之年，對臺灣的登山教育盡心盡力。

This paper takes a narrative approach in telling the life story of a female mountaineer who has reached the peak of the highest Mountain in the world twice who will go by the (anonymous) name of the "Jiang Tsai". In detailing her life of mountain climbing, the paper will cover key persons, things and events that changed and affected her life. This paper will seek to understand the value and significance of these elements.
I conducted an in-depth interview with the research object, "Jiang Tsai", to understand the life story of her mountaineering process. The interview data was first transcribed into a verbatim draft, and then analyzed and studied. After the introduction of the chapter One, the second chapter reviews the relevant literature referenced by the researchers, and the third chapter is the research method, history and writing methods. The fourth chapter presents the story of the personal mountaineering narrative of "Jiang Tsai" in the form of storytelling, and embeds the first-hand narrative material to show the true emotions of the research participants. The fifth chapter is my reflection and thoughts on the story of Jiang Tsai’s mountaineering story. The sixth chapter is the personal conclusion and research suggestion.
There are several discoveries in this study. First, an excellent mountaineer like Jiang Tsai does not love mountain climbing from the beginning, but in the course of life, step by step to the mountains and slowly like to climb. Fall in love with climbing. Secendly, “Jiang Tsai” has become a mountain guide. Participating in the challenge of the Mountain Everest and then the seven summits of the future is not one-off process. It is not the result of smooth sailing, but many people, things and things are interlocking. Finally achieved a brilliant record of the peak. Thirdly, in the process of mountaineering, not only must we sign the life and death, but also the thrilling process of returning to life before the ghost gate. The experience of facing death makes Jiang Tsai better understand the beauty of life. She is also more able to concentrate on her life. She will do her best for the mountaineering education in Taiwan.
