LearningInThinAir1Life Is An Adventure

A life spent in the rarified air of high altitude provides for even greater adventures.

Follow Scott Kress’ journey from his first moves on the rock face to the top of the world! Through his inspiring story of triumph, challenge, determination, and sometimes failure, Scott suggests that we are all climbers, climbing our own mountains. By rising to the challenge of change and continuous improvement, he demonstrates how the lessons of life in the mountains are directly applicable to any and all personal and professional challenges.

In telling his story, he provides you unique guidance on how you can reach your own summit.
