"Climbing, and traveling to remote corners of the earth has become even riskier in recent years. Whether it is a coup in Nepal, extremists in Pakistan, sub-standard medical care in Africa, or an avalanche in South America, there is only one rescue provider in the world that has the resources to get you home. Global Rescue is the service that my family, fellow guides and I use."
