Reaching for new heaights

A group of climbers has made history as the first allBlack team to summit the highest mountain on Earth. Full Circle Everest Expedition is the inaugural group of Black and Brown climbers to summit the peak. The team says it took about three years of preparation. Fewer than 10 Black climbers have ever made it to the top of Everest. The group includes a high-school science teacher, an Iraq War veteran and a small-business owner, and they have one goal in mind: to promote racial equity in the great outdoors. fullcircleeverest.com
