Reading stories of climbing Mount Everest like Into Thin Air or The Climb have you ever wished you could have a Himalayan adventure of your own? Perhaps you would like to see Base Camp where expeditions from all over the world gather to acclimate and prepare for their attempts to scale the world’s highest mountain. ADK member Hank Kammerer did and he’ll be sharing his inspirational story with us.

Please join us to see images of and hear stories about the 11 day high altitude trek through Nepal. This was no easy stroll as Hank’s group traveled at 10,000 to 18,000 feet in elevation. Whether we are an armchair adventurer or an ultra-fit 46er we can learn from this adventure. In Hank’s own words, "How does a 71 year old who has never been a strong hiker or mountain climber prepare for and successfully accomplish" such a journey? Come find out the answers, be entertained, and be motivated to pursue your own goals.
