|I just thought you might like to follow along on this event. The | team of climbers including Erik Weihenmayer and a film crew are taking off | today from Colorado for Tibet. The climbers were in Tibet last spring to | train | the Tibetan students and they are now going to attempt to climb a 23,100 | foot | mountain. | | http://www.climbingblind.org | | Soon after Erik Weihenmayer climbed Mt. Everest, the director of a school | for | the blind in Lhasa, Tibet asked him to travel - once again, half-way around | the world to visit their class. "Of course," he said. "Can I take your | class climbing?" | "There is a blurry line separating what the world sees as impossible yet | that | we know in our hearts to be fully possible. If I can find a way to reach out | across race and culture, and shatter the boundaries which have been | established through generations for the disabled people of Tibet, and pass | to them that | same sense of joy and achievement with which I have been blessed, it will be | the fulfillment of my climbing career." Erik Weihenmayer, Expedition Leader | | | _______________________________________________
