  1. That is one of the coolest videos I’ve ever seen! Congratulations to both of you, but especially to Garrett. He’s amazing.

  2. Wow, Alan, thank-you! This interview brought tears to my eyes. You and Garrett Madison really did share something special, very rare and rich with your followers. I’m so grateful folks turned around with wisdom, and there was no bottle neck from the Hillary Step to the summit, avoiding deaths. Maybe some can try again in the next good weather window. Stunning interview! Humility and grace shown through, hearts to hearts!
