"Return to Mount Kennedy" is a feature-length documentary that merges music and mountaineering. Equal parts profound and comical, the clip offers a window into the rest of the film.
I watched this today. It's a really nice documentary. I wasn't aware of the intertwined history of the Whitakers and Kennedys. It was interesting to see the old footage. Bob Whitaker is a pretty funny guy too. Watch it if you get a chance.
I grabbed this shot (i edited it) of Eddie and Mark Arm from Hawaii 1992
