People Respected My Experience, They Hire Me,

A Review Of Summit Day Photographs Will Show That I Was Clothed In The Latest, Highest Quality, High Altitude Gear, Comparable, If Not Better, Than That Worn By The Other Members Of Our Expedition.

I Don't Know What Being An Everest Guide Means. I Am A Coach, Not A Guide.

People Respected My Experience, They Hire Me, They Pay Me What I Am Worth To Coach Their Team.

Honestly, I Do Not Experience Fear In The Mountains. On The Contraryi Feel My Shoulders Straightening, Squaring, Like The Birds As They Straighten Their Wings. I Enjoy The Freedom And The Altitude. It Is Only When I Return To Life Below That I Feel The World's Weight On My Shoulders.

How Could The Adventure Seeker Of Today Find Satisfaction With The Level Of Performance That Was A Standard Set More Than 40 Years Ago ?
