Summit County local prepares for 7th Everest expedition

Although he spends part of every year in Summit County, Bill Crouse leaves Breckenridge each spring to guide expeditions up Mt Everest on behalf of the French-based Himalayan Experience.  The Iowa native first scaled the peak as a three person team conducting a GPS recalculation survey on the world’s tallest mountain.  Since then he has made the climb six times, and will head out for attempt number seven the first week of April.   He has been known to hike Colorado 14ers with 35 pounds of rocks in his pack as part of his training.   Imagine that the next time you scale one of our local peaks!   Click <a href="www.himex.com" target="_blank">here</a> to follow his upcoming expedition.Submitted by Margaret Bowes 9 application/xml false 14ers Breckenridge climb Colorado Everest expedition Summit County world's highest peak Himalayan Experience Climbers Asian Experience http://www.himex.com Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727) 127.0.0.1 127.0.0.1 jbrewer 66.198.200.154 false true false false true 205866 false false true false false false true 78727 blog blogsite/SnowHome/web
