Meet Clark & Ed



I thought over the next few days, it would be nice to share with you all a little bit about our climbers, who they are off the mountain and why they might be doing this.. .Clark Chesbro
CLARK ...is an industrial arts teacher in Buffalo.  He also teaches Construction Technology.  His Construction Technology class works with Habitat for Humanity and together they have built 9 houses in our community. He's always been a seeker of adventure and new experiences and has many interests.  He likes to fish- lake fishing and fly fishing, he loves  hiking and backpacking, kayaking, mountain biking, climbing, horseback riding,  camping, skiing - cross country, back country, and telemarking.  His favorite way to stay in shape is running with his dogs and he's completed  many long distance mountain runs which have been anywhere from twenty six miles runs to one hundred mile mountain runs.   He loves to spend time with his family and he and his wife will be building a new home starting this summer upon his return.  He has one daughter, who just got married and is living in Fort Collins.  She has an elementary education degree and also loves the mountains thanks to her dad.  He has one son, who loves the cowboy life and is currently cowboying on the Winecup/Gamble ranch in Nevada.  He also loves the outdoors thanks to his dad.  And last, he is a Christian man who loves Jesus and treasures his relationship with the Lord.



Belinda and Clark lived in Alaska for several years and climbing McKinley has been on his bucket list for some time now, just waiting for the right group of like minded guys!
