In 2006, Dominic Faulkner led the British EverestMax expedition - the ultimate ascent of Mount everest in a journey that lasted six months and has never been repeated. Starting at the earth's lowest point on the shores of the Dead Sea the team cycled and negotiated their way through eight countries and 8000km to reach the north side of Mount Everest. Dominic’s account of their journey is richly illustrated with images and video footage.
Dom Faulkner is an educator, writer and explorer and is the author of the Longest Climb, short listed for the Boardman Tasker Award for mountain literature.
