Dave Hahn

Mountaineer Dave Hahn has stood on top of the world 15 times —more than any non-Sherpa climber. But after 30 years as a guide, attaining the summit of Everest is no longer the driving force behind Hahn’s adventures. He recalls President Teddy Roosevelt’s words that 'It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena … who strives valiantly … who at the best knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly…' Hahn understands that the heart of mountain climbing is about the journey, not the destination.

In 1965 climber Jim Whittaker and Bobby Kennedy made the first ascent of Mt Kennedy in the Canadian Yukon after it had renamed in honor of Bobby’s brother President Kennedy. 50 years later, their sons Chris Kennedy and Bob Whittaker attempt to relive the same ascent. Other than in the climb of the mountain, the film focuses on the story of Bob Whittaker’s journey from crazy-ass punk band rocker, partygoer and band manager to environmental activist. With original music by Eddie Vedder, the movie sits at the junction of environmentalism, and adventure.

Professional ski mountaineer Kit DesLauriers made history when she became the first person to ski from the summit of the highest peak on each of the seven continents. With footage from the actual ski descents and interviews with Kit and her elite teammates: Damian Benegas, Wally Berg, Jimmy Chin, Rob DesLauriers, and Dave Hahn, the film documents these adventures while delving into Kit’s own personal journey and the relationship between her, her husband and her pet wolf. The title of the film is a reflection of her belief that one has to live according to their own nature – much like a wolf in the wild.

Krakauer examines why one team failed and the other succeeded, even as he battles with the challenge of conquering the unpredictable slopes of the southern continent's mightiest summit.
