Deathly Ascent
We will travel to the extreme opposite end of the earth for
today’s film as we venture to the heights of Mt. McKinley,
the highest point in North America. This NOVA film attempts

have occurred on McKinley’s summit. We will follow high altitude
rescuers, emergency medical evacuation teams, and scientists
leading cutting edge experiments as they attempt to save climbers
from deathly ascents.
