Tue 21st July 2026 Free entry, retiring collection for ABO. Pete Ellis escaped office life in 2000 to take up a life in the outdoors. Soon becoming an International Mountain Leader, he led trekking holidays in the UK, Europe and further afield for the next 20 years. During this time, he also indulged his passion for climbing mountains, which included, in 2012, Mount Everest. This completed the Seven Continental Summits (the highest points of all seven continents), an achievement accomplished by a select group of about 400 people.
This talk is about the final, Everest, stage of The Seven Summits. The climb was from the north, through Tibet, the route originally visited by Mallory and Irvine in the 1920s. It will be a personal tale of the trip, illustrated with many photographs.
