Program Description

Event Details

In 2015, a massive earthquake in Nepal triggered the deadliest avalanche in the history of Everest climbing. As the tallest mountain in the world, Everest holds a special place in the minds and hearts of many. It has religious significance for inhabitants of the region; additionally, it captivates the many mountaineers who have attempted to summit it and thus stand "on top of the world."  Join Active Minds as we explore the stories of Everest-both triumphs and tragedies-and examine different perspectives on the mountain's past, present, and future.
