We chose our name, Team No Limits, to fit our belief that there is no limitation to what the human spirit can achieve or overcome. The primary mission of the Team No Limits Everest 2006 Expedition is to get as many team members as possible on the summit of the highest mountain in the world, and then back home safely! As we prepare for the expedition, we will also raise money for the American Lung Association. During the expedition, we will conduct scientific research, in partnership with the University of Alabama School of Medicine, into the causes of altitude induced pulmonary hypertension.
Team No Limits is committed to the highest standards of environmental awareness, and the team will adhere to the principles of “leave no trace” climbing during the expedition. Indeed, our goal is to obtain “positive impact,” whereby team members will not only remove all of their own equipment and waste from the mountain, but will also strive to remove waste left behind by past expeditions.
