High and Hallowed: Everest 1963 is the deepest story of the greatest Himalayan climb in American mountaineering history. Showcasing the daring and visionary efforts of the 1963 American Mount Everest Expedition, the film examines the sheer commitment, step-by-step struggle and lasting impact of America's first ascent of Mount Everest and the pioneering first ascent of West Ridge by Tom Hornbein and Willi Unsoeld. Five decades later, High and Hallowed returns to Everest to find out if the essence of risk, adventure and the unknown that drew the first Americans to the summit still exists on Everest today.

Big World

A paddle-board journey down a remote stretch of river in Western Nepal isn’t a typical spring break trip for a kid. But that’s exactly what climbing guide David Morton sets out to do with his 7-year-old son, Thorne, in the spring of 2018. Through long stretches of flat-water, cliff jumping, broken fins and occasional rapids, what unfolds offers proof that even in today’s hyper-digital world, it’s possible to foster wildness in our kids.
