Big Picture: Peak Experience

Accomplished climbers Adam Wilson '02. and classmates Freddie Wilkinson and Bart Paull demonstrate their school spirit atop Lobuje East, a 20,000-foot peak in the Himalayas in Nepal, on October 14,2000. The high peak in the background at right is Mt. Everest. "I carry my Dartmouth pennant on every climb," says Wilkinson. "It's been on four continents, from the summit of Mt. McKinley in Alaska to Artesonraju in Peru. And, of course, to the top of Mt. Moosilauke."
