This week we welcome our first guest to the podcast. My co-host Dave Adlard and I sit down and chat with Alan Arnette about the upcoming spring climbing season in the Himalaya, with a lot of focus on Everest in particular. Alan is one of the best resources around when it comes to talking about mountaineering, and he always provides interesting insights and perspectives. Of course, we also start the show with adventure news including a sad story from the Volvo Ocean Race, news about the environment, and an impressive new record for the most vertical feet skied in a single day. And as always, we wrap up the show with some gear talk with information on a new budget camera from GoPro, our thoughts on Oru Kayaks, and much, much more.
If you'd like to offer any feedback about this episode in particular or the show in general, you can find us on Facebook, Twitter, and by email. We'd love to hear what you think. Thanks for listening!
