No Place But UP!

Veterinarian Fox discovered climbing in 2006 and set his goal to achieve the summit of Everest. To achieve that goal he summitted two 14ers in Colorado (2006), attempted Rainier (2007), another 14er in Colorado and three peaks in Mexico (2008), and then on to Everest. In 2009, as a member of Russell Brice’s Himalayan Experience expedition, Fox stood on the summit of Everest. Fox provides a good account of what a current commercial expedition is like.
