Episode 021 ABC FYI "Pretty Mellow". A climb of Mount Everest truly begins at ABC. Advanced Base Camp is the first major camp past BC, and where many climbers spend most of their time. It is about 22km from this gravel pit we call Base Camp, but like most things around here, it's a world away. Most climbers take a couple of days to make the BC-ABC journey their first time, but I'm told that by the end of the expedition it will only take them around 5 hours!

An Almost Unabridged Expedition Experience. Start at Episode 000 and work your way forward. The Rest of Everest is a video podcast conceived and created by documentary filmmaker Jon Miller of TreeLine Productions in Colorado. It is "the rest" of the footage from the groundbreaking expedition documentary "Everest: The Other Side" which engrossed thousands of viewers when it premiered on Dish Network™ Pay-Per-View in May of 2005. The film documents the 2003 expedition to the Northeast Ridge route in Tibet, and coincides with the 50th anniversary climbing season. The story revolves around 23-year old climber Ben Clark and the fulfillment of his dream to become one of the youngest climbers to ever summit Everest. Although the film has been very well received, there's just so much of the story left to be told. Miller returned from Everest with over 80 hours of tape from the 60 day expedition. The final cut of the film totaled just 84 minutes. Average that out and it appears that only one minute of every hour filmed made it into the finished version. In September of 2007, the final episode from the 2003 expedition was released. Stay tuned (and subscribed) because Jon has new material from his return to Everest in April of 2007 all filmed specifically for the podcast. This is going to be quite a journey.
