My Everest Odyssey

The remarkable story of one of the earliest trekkers to the base camp of Mount Everest. In 1967, with $200 in his pocket, twenty-two-year-old Peace Corps Volunteer Russ Staples heads for Nepal. Join Russ as he travels from a small village in South India, with little more than a borrowed backpack and youthful enthusiasm, to the base of the tallest mountain in the world, a journey that took forty days and included travel by planes, trains, busses, and rickshaws. Fifty years ago, the trek to Everest was not what it is today.
