The Mountain

The Mountain video was created by my ultra-talented and adorable nephew, Ryan. It includes photos from a few mountain climbing trips and one taken by Hiro Kuraoka on Everest. The voice is Sir Edmund Hillary.

Everest Summit

May 23, 2009 - This video is from the camera worn by my Sherpa, Lakpa Nuru. Although I was not featured in Everest Beyond the Limit (I was told my summit day was "uneventful and efficient" - not terribly exciting for television but super exciting for me), the film company, Tigress, kindly provided me 21 minutes of footage from our summit climb. This 41 sec. video gives you a pretty good look at the spectacular view that kept us on the summit for a whopping 15 minutes.

Lakpa Nuru and I were the last to leave camp at 1:30am. We stood on the summit at 9:44am.
