Taking some personal liberty during this Everest 2024 season coverage, I want to share my 2011 Everest summit with an overview, narrative and Podcast. I hope you enjoy it. #everest2024 www.alanarnette.com/blog/2024...
Something to be so proud of Alan...many of us will never get tired of hearing your stories! The love of Ida, your mom and the inspiration you felt to keep going surely tells me she's been with you in spirit throughout your climb and your involvement in the Alzheimers Foundation. You are amazing in all your accomplishments! She'd be so proud of you! Today I opened my cell phone case...and needed Google to search something...well wouldn't you know it? This quite handsome looking man, a very familiar face to me...a man I've followed for years in his red goose downed parka....oh yes....sure enough there you were in the Business Insider Science section with a plastered picture of the one and only Sir Alan Arnette! Article on "Three professional mountaineers explain why these shorter peaks are so challenging, and why Mt. Everest is easier to climb than ever before. I thought you'd like to know...again the world should know your name by now! Just another thing to be proud of Alan! God bless your good heart!
What a wonderful story! You inspire us all. Thank you as much as you thanked Kami Sherpa. I love mountains, but sometimes i am to lazy to go. When I start walking its different story, everything is right where it should be. I am ashamed by your story frankly. That drive and passion you have is unbelievably strong. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for sharing that beautiful personal testimony of your climb to the top! I imagine it is a very humbling experience and it shows in this video! I get emotional watching because you have a way of placing us right there in your experiences 😊 thank you again I’m glad I found your channel! Also thank you for the update on Ryan Mitchell since we haven’t heard from him but that is okay he’s doing a very hard time right now and I want him to be focused and safe! Congratulations also to the young lady you mentioned in the email 🥳
I am so thankful you shared your story about your summit. I tried to find it before but wasn't able to. What a wonderful experience. Thank you so much for sharing!
You are most certainly not only right brain talented but left brain as well. Thank you for sharing this amazing memory. What a beautiful way to honor your mother.
This is so special 💖 thank you for sharing. I can't wait to put my feet on EBC one day. I know how you feel about your mom. My mom is battling Parkinson.
I am a longtime big fan of yours, my good sirr!! I love your story and videos ( a lot! ) In many ways, ... I think you are a cool, good person, and .. to me... you are & have been a great person for me to look up to! 🙏💪😇🫡💯 🏔🗻⛰️ .... 👀 ... 😲 🗻🏔 ... 👀 Whooaa!!! 🫵 Ultra Strong Person! 💯 As do many others, ... I really love how you describe things/ events in mountain climbing these legendary peaks! Again, .. Big fan of your videos... and as always, .. ... nothing but the very best for you, ... and all of your friends & family! 🙏🙏🙏
What an incredible, captivating and fascinating man you are ❤. Wonderful story and thank you for sharing such a wonderful memory. I feel your bond with your mommy. I too shared the same. I lost my beloved mommy to stage 4 ovarian cancer and I miss her every single second of every day that remains to me now 🙏❤️
I loved this story .. 😢♥️ And extremely well told. 👏👏 I closed my eyes for most of it and envisioned all the spots that I know from other documentaries & videos, so it was like I was summiting with you in that great narrative.. beautiful way to end the story too. Thank you 😔
Alan I’ve just discovered you! You have me hooked. Please update us as soon as you get the chance. I’m following Ryan because of you and have been so worried. Praying he has a successful summit and return and I’m on pins and needles. I saw a post there was a tragedy on Everest and I’m awaiting your update. ❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for sharing. Very touching and hits home. I lost both parents this past year to Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s with Lewy Body dementia. I’m trying to find my “center” again. ❤️
Alan will you be making a vid soon about the sudden collapse of the cornice at the summit of Everest yesterday ? I trust you've seen the photos and have some thoughts on this tragic turn . Many would be interested. RIP to the missing.
Yes in a few hours plus read my blog about it at www.alanarnette.com/blog/2024/05/25/everest-2024-weekend-update-may-25-season-nears-the-end-with-summits-and-death/
Buenos días Would you happen to have a company that great just for base camp , I’ll leave the climbing to the experts but did trek Machu Picchu was so emotional when I saw it -sunrise was just coming up - I made it 🎉
Hello Alan, I was recently reading about the Himalayan Database. I was just curious, if a climber summits with a guide service, does that expedition leader submit the names for entry into the official database, or does each individual have to submit their own names?
@AlanArnetteClimbs thanks for the reply, Alan. I was watching a video on Elizabeth Hawley recently, and it peaked my interest into that whole process. I remembered reading about her in one of Ed Viester's books that I read. FYI, my sister has Alzheimers. It's very sad to see a loved one go through it. Thanks for what you do for this cause.
