The Challenge of the Mundane

by Phil Houtz on January 10, 2007

A team of eleven mountaineers face the extreme challenge of climbing the highest point…in Kansas.

My favorite line in Into Thick Air has to do with the selection of Dick Bettinger to lead Logistics and Supply because “he is the only person we know who owns a set of crampons.”

A little disturbing, but worth the viewing, is the part where James Bettinger loses his footing and nearly falls to his death.
