MountaineersClub Posted August 15, 2007 Posted August 15, 2007 Kit DesLauriers 7 Continents, 7 Summits, 2 Skis and 1 Buddhist Lama Wednesday, September 12, 2007 7 p.m. at The Mountaineers Building At 10:54 a.m. on October 18, two-time World Champion Freeskier Kit DesLauriers reached the summit of Mount Everest. Moments later, she stepped into her skis and pushed off, becoming the first person to ski from the Seven Summits, the highest point on each of the seven continents. Kit’s account of her global quest is a tale of seven pinnacles and many ups and downs in between. “Dare to fail,” beckons Kit, “and don’t let your dreams be dreams.” The Mountaineers are proud to co-sponsor this event with The North Face. Tickets are on sale now through The North Face at their website. General Admission tickets are $12, and a $25 VIP Admission ticket gets you into the Outside Magazine VIP reception and silent auction at 6 p.m. Discount coupons for 50% off General Admission are available at the two Seattle North Face stores and at The Mountaineers Bookstore.
