Voom Network's Rush TV, The North Face, GlobalGiving, and Serac Adventure Films have teamed up with the Himalayan Cataract Project to tell an inspiring story and raise money for a great cause. The expedition is lead by seven time Everest summiter Pete Athans and includes other members of The North Face Athlete Team: Conrad Anker, Kevin Thaw, Jimmy Chin, Abby Watkins and John Griber.
