On this Day...

Hillary and Norgay

In 1953 the world witnessed two men reaching the top of Everest and returning home. They have inspired millions of people to explore the outdoors in extreme conditions. Congratulations to Baxter's team and to all the other climbers on the mountain at this time, your families will be happy to see you again.
