Chad Kellogg is currently in Base Camp on the South Side of Everest where he is preparing to attempt a speed climb of that mountain. You can follow his progress on the VertiCulture Blog, which is the official blog of gear company Outdoor Research, one of his primary sponsors.
The site is now hosting the first of a new series of videos that will follow Chad on his attempt to go from BC to the summit and back again in under 30 hours. The beautifully shot video can be viewed below and
it provides some great imagery of the Khumbu region, Base Camp and the mountain.
