Climb Sepu : The Team

"We are seven passionate individuals for whom interaction with the alpine pervades every aspect of our lives, whether it be choice of friends, relationships, hobbies or careers. All are interwoven with our unquenchable thirst for the mountains."
-Mark Newcomb

The men and women of the 2002 Sepu Kangri team consist of experienced and dedicated Marmot athletes, a world-renowned photographer and an experienced videographer from an award winning interactive media company.

Mark Newcomb Expedition Leader Climber/Skier "It's a chance to explore another mountainous nook in a part of the world I've developed a strong attachment to."	Carina Ostberg Expedition Climber/Skier "It was too good to pass up. Plus, I refuse to be apart from Mark for that long. And like I said, I like to harass my husband."	Carlos Buhler Expedition Climber/Skier "Sepu is outside the normal transit routes of tourists in Tibet. I find this type of exploratory mountaineering to be the most rewarding."


Ace Kvale Photographer - Climber/Skier "A virtually unexplored range in Tibet? This is the opportunity of a lifetime. A dream trip..."	Kate Clayton Media Assistant - Climber/Skier "Why Sepu Kangri? Why not?!"	Jordan Campbell Photographer - Climber/Skier "The best part is the team itself. I’ve felt like, 'these are the people you want to do an expedition with.'"


	Frank Pickell Videographer - Climber/Skier "This is a chance to capture the cult of the alpine where all the traits of our culture, good and bad, are laid bare."
