Show Notes

Interview with Climber and Teacher, Eddie Taylor.

On May 12th of 2022 Eddie Taylor joined six other climbers on the summit of Mount Everest for the first all Black ascent of the Nepalese mountain. Seven months earlier, Eddie climbed the Moonlight Buttress, a 5.12+ 1000' sandstone wall in Zion National Park. These two ascents show the ability of Eddie to balance being a teacher, husband, father, and climber.

Upon completing a double major and finishing his track and field career at the University of Colorado, Eddie went on to become a passionate rock climber, public school science teacher, head track and field coach and more recently Patagonia ambassador.
