Jeff Reynolds ~ Expedition Mountaineering: The Facts and Fiction of Climbing Mt. Everest
From logistics and finance to conditioning and emergency response, high altitude expeditions involve significant effort and risk. Presenter Jeff Reynolds, with over 32 years of climbing experience, will discuss the fundamentals of planning and execution for high altitude expedition climbing and what it takes to get from concept to summit success. Jeff has successfully led hundreds of high alpine trekking and climbing expeditions in South America, North America, Europe, Africa and Asia. He was recently an Expedition Leader for the S2Mountaineering’s 2012 Mt Everest expedition, placing the entire team on the summit on May 19th.
His personal ambitions focus on exploration climbing and first ascents. Jeff is a committed advocate for high alpine preservation and responsible mountaineering.
