This website illuminates my life and adventures. My longing for freedom has led me to over 2600 of the world’s 3978 provinces, to every country on earth and to the summit of the highest peak on each continent (thank heaven for good weather!). In my travels, I learned to respect the intelligence and ingenuity of people of all races and callings both past and present. Come see the world as I see it: as a peaceful place, full of nature and beauty. With the right spirit and intent, we can make our world a virtual Garden of Eden.

Nepal, Lhotse-Everest in Sunset, 1983 - This photograph was taken from Tengboche monastery at sunset. In front is the face of Lhotse, the 4th highest peak in the world. The third peak over to the right is actually Everest. Because of the fact it is further away, it appears smaller. The Lhotse face is still unclimbed.
