Where: Casa Enrique

In March 2010, Enrique Rodriguez left sunny sea-level San Francisco for the icy slopes of Mt. Everest, the highest mountain in the world. With cold-weather resilience developed over years of waiting for the ...school bus in New Hampshire and winter camping skills honed high in the alpine zone of Mt. Washington, Enrique will discuss his 1st Himalayan expedition in pursuit of his 7th "Seven Summit."

How long does a Himalayan expedition take? What's day-to-day life like on an 8,000 meter peak? How do you train for Himalayan climbing? What gear was bulletproof and what gear totally failed? What's it like climbing in the "Death Zone"? Did he meet the youngest kid to climb Everest? ... the top 8,000 meter women? ... any famous Himalayan veterans with numerous ascents of 8,000 meter peaks? For the answers to these questions and many more, come August 2nd for an exciting multimedia journey to the "roof of the world"!

As always, $15 for an annual membership, y'all, and another $15 gets you an awesome t-shirt
