tech climbs to new heights

crucial to the success of any mountain adventure - and much more
so on an attempt to scale Canada's tallest mountain. But for the
climbers of the Summits of Canada Expedition, technology is almost
as important.

For this Canadian, hitting the summits is only the start.
Three years ago, Canadian James Coleridge was just another recreational mountaineer determined to notch the Seven Summits on his ice axe.
