41) Jean Muenchrath: Escape from Mt Whitney

Today we have a special guest, Jean Muenhcrath. She is going to tell her amazing survival story that starts when she and her boyfriend Ken set out to ski the John Muir trail in 1982 on skinny nordic skis. The John Muir trail is over 200 mile long trail in the Sierra Nevada mountain range of California, a world famous trail, connecting the Yosemite Valley to Mount Whitney, the highest point in the United States, with a total elevation gain of 47,000 feet. All was going well on this journey until the duo encountered a storm on Mount Whitney that would forever change Jean’s life.

Check out Jean's book: If I Live Until Morning: A True Story of Adventure, Tragedy and Transformation, available on Amazon. Also take a look at Jean's website at www.jeanmuenchrath.com
