Group Description

Reliving the glory days one image at a time.

In the early morning hours of May 25, 2001 history was made when the National Federation of the Blind 2001 Everest Expedition stood on top of the world. This team of climbers, led by Pasquale Scaturro included Eric Alexander, Sherman Bull and his son Brad, Luis Benitez, Mike Brown, Jeff Evans, Steve Gipe, Didrik Johnck, Charlie Mace, Chris Morris, Mike O'Donnell, and blind climber Erik Weihenmayer. With not only Weihenmayer reaching the summit, but also the oldest climber to summit (Sherman Bull), the first father and son team to summit together (Sherman and Brad Bull), and the largest team summiting with 19 of 21 members, many ideas of what were once thought possible have now been shattered.

This team would have never been complete without our base camp support crew of Kevin Cherilla, Reba Bull, Kim Johnson, Maurice Peret, Matt Sanner, Zach German, and our high and low altitude Sherpa crew led by Kami Tenzing.
