2007.10.25. REI. Slide presentation by ski mountaineer Chris Davenport, who skied all the 54 summit over 14000ft in Colorado in one year. He skied down Denali a couple of times this past spring, after completing the project. Most of his venture was completed with a group of friends, some have made to the top of Everest. His next quests will be the Alps (Matterhorn, Eiger's northern face), and Alpamayo in Peru. During the Q&A, he talked about gears and trip planning. Great photographs and maps, scary terrains. However, he needs to read more, in order to make his discourse less redundant.
