From Alpine
Assents International, "One
of the world's most famed mountaineers, Vernon has
summited the highest mountain on each continent and has
guided well over thirty climbs on Denali. A charismatic
leader, he is legendary for Denali's first solo winter
ascent, the first solo ascent of Mt. Vinson and as a lead
guide for Col. Norman Vaughn's ascent of Mt. Vaughn.
Vernon led the Alpine Ascents
International expedition
to Iran's Mt. Damavand (one of the first American guided
climbs). Most recently Vern had outstanding success with
two trips to Mt. Vinson, Denali and Elbrus, guided the Alpine Ascents
International
2000 Everest expedition and in his free time, completed a
winter ascent of Aconcagua and a top 10 finish in the 1999
Eco-Challenge."
