The 1994 Sagarmatha Environmental Expedition with Steve Goryl


The_North_Face

Recommended Posts

In 1991, Steve Goryl and the late Scott Fischer decided to embark on an Environmental Everest Climb, forming a team that was intent on conservation of this majestic peak. After a successful climb of the world's tallest mountain, this expedition made international headlines when they removed more than two tons worth of garbage from previous expeditions, setting a precedent for minimum-impact high altitude mountaineering. For this, the team was honored with the David Brower Award for conservation. Steve was the Expedition Leader of this Mt.Everest climb and became the 367th Westerner to reach the summit. He has been an instructor with NOLS since 1971 and has worked more than 440 weeks in the field.
