DAN MAZUR'S FREE TALKS & LECTURES FEBRUARY 2018
Hear from Dan
World famous Mountaineer, Expedition Guide and ultimate Journey Maker
Journey Makers - have you ever wondered what the view would be like from the summit of Mount Everest? Or how cold it might be at basecamp of K2, the second highest (and most dangerous!) mountain in the world?
No? Well, have you ever thought about climbing one of the highest 8,000m mountains in the World yourself?
Or you might be interested in understanding the challenges of teamwork and leadership whilst exploring the furthermost reaches of Nepal or Tibet?
Whatever you fancy, we’d like to introduce you to an incredible Journey Maker, Dan Mazur – our first of many inspirational speakers. (Photo right: Kieran Lally holds the ropes for Dan Mazur Crossing a Crevasse in the Western Cwm. Photo by Scott Smith.)
An inspirational Storyteller and Journey Maker
About Dan
Dan, originally from Illinois, (USA), is an exciting, articulate but humble mountaineer who studied for his PhD just down the road in Bristol. He is renowned as much for his mountaineering feats as he is for his charity work in Nepal and Tibet. He first
tasted the high peaks at the age of 17 and since then has climbed over 50 of the world’s highest mountains on seven different continents.
In the mountaineering world, he’s most famous for leading challenging K2 expeditions, summiting Everest seven times, but also for the incredible rescue of an Australian climber, Lincoln Hall, who was left for dead at 8,600m on the descent from the summit Everest.Dan is a passionate philanthropist who spends much of his time supporting the Everest Foundation for Sustainable Development for Nepal and Tibet.
We’re really looking forward to Dan sharing his amazing experiences and stories (there’s lots of pictures too!) on:
- Teamwork and leadership
- Overcoming hardships
- Experiencing the joy of reaching one’s goals
- The importance of sustainable and meaningful charitable work

Earthquake Update From Mount Everest, where we are working with kind and friendly local Tibetan and Nepali people to help adapt to the changes brought by an earthquake which struck the Everest region on 25 April 2015, lasting about 40 seconds. This was the largest earthquake for 80 years. About 2 in 10,000 have tragically passed away in collapsed antique farm style buildings made of mud and stone with no support nor concrete. In the high mountains, ice shook loose in a few places, and unluckily, basecamp was hit. As the tremor came at noon, most everyone was up and around and able to run away. However, some did not make it. We send our deepest condolences to the victims families and friends. Lets work together to rebuild Nepal.
Please watch this video clip which displays how the earthquake affected the region: www.EverestEarthquakeVideo.org
Bring our project coordinator to your home or town to present a fundraising lecture. At the time of the earthquake (noon on Saturday, 25 April 2015) Daniel Mazur was above base camp in Camp 1 climbing the Nepal side of Everest with his team. On that day, 18 people in base camp tragically lost their lives. Our deepest condolences to their families, friends, and colleagues. Since that fateful day, Dan has been on the ground in Nepal thoroughout the Everest and Nepal earthquake, the aftershocks, and during the relief efforts, and has a fascinating story to tell with breathtaking and at times shocking photos and videos. He travels the world making presentations each July, August, January, February and March and would like to visit you and make a personal presentation to your audience in order to raise funds for www.MountEverestFoundation.org .
During July, August, January, February, and March, SummitClimb and SummitTrek leader and Mount Everest Foundation supporter Dan Mazur is taking his Nepal Everest Earthquake lecture tour on the road and we want YOU to take part. Contact info@MountEverestFoundation.org now if you would like to host or attend one of these colourful 80 minute live multi-media presentations. Please let us know if you or a friend would like to host Dan at the venue of your choice. Thank you very much.

My name is Dan Mazur, I work as an expedition leader for www.SummitClimb.com and www.SummitTrek.com . I just returned from climbing Everest in Nepal. At the time of the earthquake (noon on Saturday, 25 April) I was above base camp in Camp 1 climbing the Nepal side of Everest with our team. On that day, 18 people in base camp tragically lost their lives. Our deepest condolences to their families, friends, and colleagues. Since that fateful day, I have been on the ground in Nepal thoroughout the Everest and Nepal earthquake, the aftershocks, and during the relief efforts, and have a fascinating story to tell with breathtaking and at times shocking photos and videos.
I’m also known for turning my Everest team around just below the summit in order to rescue a fallen Australian climber named Lincoln Hall. Also I led the famous K2 climb featured in Greg Mortenson's "3 Cups of Tea".

The reason I am contacting you now is because during July, August, January, February and March I will be travelling around the world to present captivating multimedia slide and video lectures in aid of the www.MountEverestFoundation.org with the Mount Everest Foundation for Sustainable Development (MEFSD). We are currently working to add extra dates to the tour. Are you or anyone you know able to host a lecture? I am interested to speak to a variety of audiences at venues such as companies, schools, clubs, shops, parishes, pubs, other organisations, or at gatherings of your families, friends, or workplace.
Aspiring Sherpas learn technical climbing together with our team of men and women of all ages and abilities from around the world.
The lectures are colourful 30 to 80 minute live multi-media presentations with me presenting and describing the shocking Everest Nepal Earthquake. They feature at time graphic photos, videos, and action videos telling exciting stories of the climbs, mountains, Sherpas, environments, and all of the climbers we have met on Everest, K2, and the world's most famous peaks as well as lesser known and unclimbed mountains throughout Tibet, Nepal, Pakistan, India, China, Russia, and South America. Not only that, but I will discuss our team's dramatic rescue on Everest of an Australian named Lincoln Hall from just below the summit of Everest. In addition, we will encourage everyone in the audience to share stories and even to participate in a conversation about ethics in climbing, "what's fair" in the mountains, and how we manage our impacts on the mountain environments and people we visit.
The lectures are in aid of the www.MountEverestFoundation.org and MEFSD - The Mount Everest Foundation for Sustainable Development in Nepal and Tibet which exists to help local families help themselves to recover from the earthquake, and to build schools and hospitals and environmental projects in remote areas near to Mount Everest: www.MountEverestFoundationNews.org .
Projects which the MEFSD supports
- Sherpa Training School -www.SherpaClimbingSchool.org building a new school for training 30 aspiring young Sherpas, seeking climbing equipment and clothing donations. Big thanks to RAB Equip-UK for generous ongoing support of the Sherpas. Individuals an companies are encouraged to become involved with equipment, clothing and boot donations.
- The Deboche Nunnery project. Restoring the Pema Choling Buddhist women’s convent, where impoverished nuns live in a leaky old convent. The Deboche Earthquake has been destroyed and fund raising is in progress. Rebuilding will happen in the next few weeks. Please go to www.DebocheProject.org .
- Cleaning up Mount Everest. Building a waste treatment facility for Everest Base Camp and monitoring water quality there. Currently in the design phase with Kathmandu University, Seattle University, and Engineers Without Borders. Experimental Project is taking place now at Kathmandu University.

So in conclusion, I anticipate meeting you, your family, freinds, and colleagues and presenting an exciting programme of stories, films and photos about climbing our world's highest mountains and visiting exotic places where very few people are able to venture, all in aid of a very good cause.
Please let me know if you or a friend would like to host me at the venue of your choice. Thank you very much. To host a lecture or if you know of someone who might like to, please email: info@MountEverestFoundation.org or dan@summitclimb.com There are NO speakers’ fees; I simply request a donation to the MEFSD.
I hope that you can help or suggest local companies, schools,clubs, shops, parishes, pubs, or other organisations who may be interested. I am also very glad to make a private presentation to you, your family, groups of friends, your workplace, parish, or local pub. We can also provide colourful posters which you can display and help to spread the word among people in your community who might wish to join the audience.

Dan Mazur is well known for his heroic rescue of Lincoln Hall in 2006, abandoning his own team’s summit attempt when other climbers had left Hall for dead. Dan has decades of experience and building deep relationships working alongside the sherpa community in the foothills of this famous mountain. In addition to his infamous climbing skills, he is also the Director of the Mount Everest Foundation for Sustainable Development in Nepal and Tibet , supporting cultural preservation, restoration, and education projects to sustain local communities as well as supporting environmental cleanup projects and awareness in order to calm the effects of tourism in the Himalaya.
In 2013, Dan Mazur and Marcia MacDonald brought a critical project to Architects Without Borders-Seattle – the renovation of the Deboche Convent . Just steps off of the trek to Base Camp, the convent is extreme disrepair; sleeping, eating and studying quarters are nearly uninhabitable, particularly in the extreme winter temperatures. While the well-known Tyangboche Monastery, only a 30 minute walk away, has received significant international attention and funding for its facilities, the Deboche Nunnery, has largely been ignored. Architects Without Borders – Seattle is embarking on the critical renovation of the living quarters and the design of a new meditation center to be able to house, feed and educate local women and girls from the surrounding areas. The new meditation center will also be able to host trainings and retreats for serious practitioners, providing critical income generation activities.
In Spring 2014 Dan was the guest speaker at the Architects Without Borders fundraising event which was a sell-out.
Contact info@MountEverestFoundation.org now if you would like to host or attend one of these colourful 80 minute live multi-media presentations. Please let us know if you or a friend would like to host Dan at the venue of your choice. Thank you very much.

LECTURE NEWS: In February and March of 2013 lots of amazing people attended our lectures.These were hosted by our leader Dan Mazur and Ms. Samantha 'Squash' Falconer. Dan has summited Mt Everest 9 times and Mt. K2 twice. ‘Squash’ has reached the summits of both Cho Oyu and Mount Everest.
The audience witnessed breath-taking presentations. Incorporating beautiful photos and 'edge of your seat' action videos telling exciting stories of the climbs, mountains, environments and people they meet. This was all in the name of raising funds for charity/non-profit causes such as the ALL NEW www.SherpaTrainingSchool.org together with the Mount Everest Foundation for Sustainable Development, helping poor families living near Everest help themselves with Health, Education, Environmental and Cultural Preservation.
"Squash", who is 29, loves riding her motorbike from her house to the base of the mountain, climbing up to the summit with ice axe, ropes, and crampons, then jumping off in her paraglider. She has awesome movies and funny inspiring stories.

Dan Mazur is known for turning his Everest team around just below the summit in order to rescue a fallen Australian climber named Lincoln Hall, even when other teams walked past him and did nothing to help. Dan also is known for leading the K2 climb featured in Greg Mortenson's "3 Cups of Tea". Dan spins a fascinating selection of tales about tragedy and triumph on Everest, K2, and the rugged and remote mountains, cultures, and environments of Pakistan, Tibet, India, Nepal, and Central Asian Republics.

WE CONTINUE OUR FOCUS ON "GIVING-BACK" AND HELPING THE MOUNTAIN COMMUNITIES WE VISIT.
In December 2012, we were in a remote roadless village near Everest and found several injured Sherpa children who needed help, including a badly infected baby, her mother, and a boy who lost his eye in an accident. Thanks to concerned donors, we brought these wounded and destitute Sherpas to Kathmandu, the exotic, friendly, and peaceful capital city of Nepal, where they received excellent lifesaving medical care, and returned to their villages in good shape. For more please visit: www.ServiceTrekNews.org.
Hamu and Nimke Sherpa after exam, diagnosis and medicine - treatment prescription at Helping Hands Hospital, Purba Sherpa's eye was injured in a scuffle with another child when he was just 14 years old. Now our service trek has brought him to Kathmandu to see if it can be treated.
We are very excited about our January-February 2014 charity fund raising presentation lectures where we will tell inspiring stories and show amazing photos of Everest and raise awareness, support, and new and used climbing and trekking equipment and clothing for the new www.SherpaTrainingSchool.org . Come out and participate in the presentations. Make new friends and meet the leaders and members of SummitClimb, SummitTrek, and the Mount Everest Foundation for Sustainable Development. Would you like to invite us and organise a lecture in your town? Please do, as there is still some availability in our schedule.
By the way, In July 2012 we gave back to international mountain communities when we offered a 100% free of cost Summer Glacier School to encourage new and old climbers, men and women of all ages and abilities from all over the world. Watch for news of our 2014 free of cost, no-charge winter and summer climbing schools open to everyone. www.CascadeGlacierSchool.org
The glacier school lines up on the moraine ascending to high camp. From the left, Rick, Heather, Jen, Bill, Maryana, Stephanie, Heather, Scott, Dale, Jeff, Allen, Abhi, Randy, Ulyana, Ania Kyler, Wes, Sonya, Tracy, Charlie, Stewart, Vance (Dan Mazur).
Dan Mazur is one of our lecturers and he presents an exciting one hour and ten minute interactive film photo show. Dan is known for leading Greg Mortenson's "Three Cups of Tea" expedition to K2 and the rescue of Lincoln Hall from just below the summit of Everest, which was featured on a special 1-hour NBC Dateline programme.
You may have heard of the tragic death of Briton David Sharp, blind climber Thomas Meier and a dramatic rescue on Everest in June, of an Australian named Lincoln Hall from just below the summit of Everest by our team of Myles Osborne from Warsash-Southampton, Phil Crampton from Nottingham, Andrew Brash from Calgary, Jangbu Sherpa and yours truly, Dan Mazur from Bristol and Seattle. The story was featured on Discovery Channel and NBC Today Show and Dateline. I thought you might be interested to see a 16 minute video of the Sharp and Meier tragedies and Hall Rescue, including Sir Edmund Hillary's (may God rest his soul) famous statement about how badly behaved modern climbers can be when forced to choose between giving up their own goals and rescuing a fellow climber. Not only does Dan's lecture highlight the inspirational and beautiful ascent of Everest, but also focuses on some of the deeper ethical controversies, which can shed light on the difficult choices all of us face in our daily lives.

2014 lecture/presentation opportunities. Please tell all of your friends! Please click on a link below to view information about our lectures or just scroll down.
You are invited to attend lively video and slideshow presentations and discussions about Himalayan climbing and trekking around, in order to raise awareness and funds to help poor local farm families living on the 'wrong side' of Mt Everest in Nepal and Tibet, where tourists never go, to help themselves build local hospitals and schools, environmental and cultural preservation projects. Mt Everest and Mt. K2.
We encourage all of our leaders to make fascinating presentations around the world to companies, clubs, groups, etcetera; to share beautiful photos and action videos; to tell their exciting stories of the climbs, mountains, environments and people they meet, all in the name of raising funds for charity/non-profit causes such as the MEF.
We appreciate your thoughtful consideration in our eight year of raising funds for what we believe to be a very worthy charity/non-profit. Dan is an adventure speaker with more than 200 presentations about his 20 years of leading climbs and treks in the Himalayas to every type of group including schools, clubs, corporations, libraries, etcetera.
There is truly something for everyone in these shows, with exciting climbing and trekking stories, exotic landscapes, fascinating cultures, and interesting discussion about best practices in the rugged and remote mountains of Pakistan, Tibet, India, Nepal, and Central Asian Republics. Dan has presented in countless venues previously to a wide variety of audiences, including clubs, shops, schools, universities, companies, etcetera.
Would you please assist us by making suggestions as to charity non-profit fund raising possibilities, promotional strategies, likely venues, as well as audiences. We hope to organize a selection of dates throughout the world for these colorful 80 minute live multi-media presentations. back to top

I am extremely honoured to make a presentation to you and your group. We can tailor the presentation to fit your own needs. The most popular presentation is:
- A. 30 minutes of Dan narrating live the gripping powerpoint slide show story of when he climbed Everest as a young man with Anatoli Boukreev. This is his standard presentation and generally most appreciated by the audience........
- B. 18 minute action DVD of the rescue of Lincoln Hall in May of 2006, that was featured on the NBC television and international media.
- C. 7 minute action DVD about www.mounteverestfoundation.org
- D. Afterward: extensive question and answer and discussion with the audience.
- Usually, the above will use the amount of time allotted (60 - 90 minutes). If yours is shorter, such as the average school class-period presentation of 50 minutes, then there may only be time for 1 video from the above....
- E. Other options are available for the more enduring audience:
- i. Seven minute DVD about the death of Scott Fischer in the 1996 "Into Thin Air" disaster written about by John Krakauer and featuring the tragic death of Anatoli Boukreev on Christmas day 1997.
- ii. 22 minute action DVD on k2 with famous climbers Rob Hall, Gary Ball, Ed Viesturs, Scott Fischer, Neil Beidleman.
- iii. 19 minute action DVD featuring famous climber Greg Child and first ascents on the back side of K2.
- iv. Near death on Mustagata
- v. Unclimbed peaks near K2 in china with Greg Child and unclimbed peaks in Tibet near Lhasa,
- vi. And many others.
We don't have a speakers fee, but request a donation to the charity Mount Everest Foundation, working together with poor families living in the foothills near Everest building hospitals, schools, and environmental projects. Dan enjoys speaking to all groups and meeting people, its very fun for him and all for a good cause.

Lecture Equipment: Here is a list of the audio/visual equipment we would like provided for a successful presentation:
- 1. lcd type projector
- 2. dvd player/laptop
- 3. laptop with powerpoint
- 4. Extension leads from the mains to the center of the room
- 5. Multi point power strip
- 6. Screen (larger is better)
- 7. Loudspeakers (computer speakers will sometimes work)
- 8. Amplifier to power the speakers
- 9. Lead to connect laptop and cd player (headphone jack style) which will connect into the amplifier so the sound can go through the speakers.
- 10. Microphone which will work with the amplifier and speakers. This is necessary for groups larger than 20.
- 11. A person who knows how to connect everything, as I am terrible at this.
Please note: in addition to watching my power point presentation which will be run from your laptop using Powerpoint, (do you have Microsoft Powerpoint installed and configured?) the audience will be watching two films totaling 25 minutes. The film is going to be on a DVD disc running in your laptop computer, connected to a video projector you will provide. Have you tried watching a film on a DVD in your laptop? If not, please try that now to be sure it will work. Thanks.
Also, unfortunately, as these projectors do not have good loudspeakers (if any), you will need to provide good loudspeakers to connect to the computer so the audience can hear the soundtrack well. These type of loudspeakers need their own power source. "Computer speakers" that you plug into your home computer aren't loud enough for an audience of more than 20 people. When you are making your equipment plans, please be sure to speak with a person who understands the equipment needs, has setup and tested everything well beforehand, and will be able to be there on the night of the presentation and knows how to connect and troubleshoot everything, as I am terrible at this. I have had some shows that turned out to be silent movies when the computer software and/or audio equipment and hook ups failed! I recall an embarrassing moment for the rotary club of Malibu, when their 100 person audience sat through an 18 minute silent movie, when the 'computer speakers' someone brought from home were only audible from a five foot radius! Thanks very much for your attention to the equipment needs and please let me know if there are any questions. back to top

A bit more about the charity/non-profit that the proceeds from our lectures benefit:
Mount Everest Foundation for the Sustainable Development of Nepal and Tibet, which helps local people living on the 'wrong side' of Everest help themselves to build schools and hospitals, educate health workers and teachers, and develop environmental projects to help poor families in Nepal and Tibet. back to top

At this time, we would like to take the opportunity to send the heartfelt thanks to those who hosted and organised the lectures, and the generous audiences who came and donated, in order to raise funds for charity non-profit. The MEF is deeply indebted to you for all of your fine help and all that you have done. Thank You Very Much! Please scroll down to see the list of venues where Dan has lectured. back to top
