Mission Statement
We believe we have the motivation and dedication to climb Mount Everest. Everything we've done to this point has been focused on increasing our chances for success. In our minds, failure is not an option. Every member of this team is willing to make sacrifices in order for each member to safely complete this expedition.
We have pushed our bodies to its limits to be physically and mentally fit for this expedition. We are aware of the dangers associated with attempting an expedition of this magnitude, but our confidence in our preparation and training fuels our desire to get to the top. Many have tried to challenge Mother Nature, we welcome the opportunity to stand at the Summit of Mount Everest and accomplish what many have tried and failed.
