Mount Everest Videos

Happily Exhausted. The rest of the day's trekking has finally brought us to the town of Namche Bazaar. Namche is fairly well-known since it serves as the gateway to the Everest region here in Nepal.

"In Person" Is Important. The podcast has been a great tool to get people around the world familiar with the Everest region. But this morning it became clear there's no competition for personal experience.

Too Much Information. We walked out of Lukla and left the infrastructure of modern life behind us. From here on out, there will be no roads and the only trains will be yak trains. How cool is that?

The Gold Standard? We landed in Lukla, Nepal this morning and everyone was looking forward to seeing-and experiencing-the famous Lukla Airstrip. A quick flight to Lukla is the first stage of most treks to the South Side of Everest.

The Team Arrives. For the past 3 years I've been trying to show a more complete picture of what it's like to visit Everest and the Himalayas. Now, with a bunch of my audience members standing around me here in Kathmandu, that picture is going to become even more complete!

Back To Everest...Again. The highly anticipated season 4 of The Rest of Everest begins this week with a nice overview of what to expect from the Everest Trek 2009 episodes.

The Himalayas Are Worth It. While the team was trekking out from A4, Ben filmed some interviews with other trekkers met on the trail.

Enough Walking, Let's Ride. The Annapurna IV expedition comes to an end as The Team completes the hike out and make their way to Pokara.

No Ganja For Me, Thanks. The Team packs up and leaves their Annapurna IV basecamp. It's been real. It's been fun. It's been real fun.

A Once-In-A-Lifetime Experience...Again! Chris Marquardt and Monika Andrae join Jon to announce details of the 2010 Trek and Photography Workshop.

Who Said Going Downhill Was Easy? The snow conditions on Annapurna IV are so terrible it makes moving, even downhill, unbelievably difficult. With each step, the guys sink up to their waist in rotten snow.

Calling It. The Team make more progress up the hill and establish a camp at around 20,000 feet.

Not A Bad Perch. The Annapurna IV climb continues with an exhausting slog up to Camp 2. The snow conditions continue to be problematic, but the views from the peak continue to be exhilarating.

There are times when life can seem like an unscalable mountain, but with God's direction it's possible for you to reach the summit. So keep climbing. http://www.gnmagazine.org/video/07162009-keep-climbing.htm
