Climber Dave Hahn Returns
to Everest
By Peter Potterfield
Dave Hahn, who already has nine
ascents of Mount Everest, will return in Spring 2008 to attempt the
world's highest peak once again and to report on his day by day
progress exclusively for GreatOutdoors.com. Hahn will be on Everest
as part of the International Mountain Guides Expedition.
GreatOutdoors.com's live coverage of the climbing action on the
world's highest peak begins in April.
With nine ascents of Mount Everest,
25 ascents of Antarctica's Vinson Massif, 17 ascents of Denali, and
245 ascents of Mount Rainier--almost all with clients in tow--Dave
Hahn may be the most successful mountain guide of his generation.
To say he is at the top of his game is an understatement. The fact
is, Hahn is a mountain guide who in the past few years has changed
the nature of the game itself. He has demonstrated an aptitude not
only to successfully climb each year marquee mountains all over the
world, but he also manages to get his clients safely to the top and
back down again. And in the process he's become a mountaineering
journalist who has garnered increasing respect in the literary
world.

"Great boots, comfortable, no break in required: Have
used these boots for rough trail hiking and snow. Performed great
on 2800 ft descent into the Black Canyon. Added a pair of Camp
light weight aluminum crampons for spring snow climbs."
