This Year My Role Is Clear: I

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.

I Am Not Sure The Others Are As Committed As Rob Hall And Scott Fischer. I Think There Is More Business Now, And I Know It Will Be Impossible To Stop This Everest Business.

Mountains Are Not Stadiums Where I Satisfy My Ambition To Achieve, They Are The Cathedrals Where I Practice My Religion.

I Respect Everest Very Much.

I Offer My Expertise And Experience For Hire In Order To Help A Group Of People Reach The Summit.
