About

Eric Alexander: skier, climber, and mountaineer is achieving his goals while playing an instrumental role in helping others to achieve their own.

On May 25th, 2001, Eric defied the odds and scaled Mt. Everest, guiding his blind friend, Erik Weihenmayer to its lofty 29,035’ summit. Eric shares his inspirational story with audiences all over the world. Eric has climbed the highest point on six of the seven continents, which is a feat in and of itself. However, what makes this accomplishment even more notable is that Eric has led a person with a disability to the summit of each continent’s highest peak.

Eric continues to climb and lead expeditions throughout Europe, North and South America, the Himalayas and other mountainous regions of the globe with disabled teens and adults. He is always looking for new mountains to climb, both personally and in the outdoors, while challenging people to overcome the “Everest” in their own lives redefining the limits of what we can achieve.
