Laval St. Germain hopes to add summit to long list after dragging sled for 45 days
A Calgary man with a thirst for adventure is preparing for yet another epic expedition, this time to Antarctica, and all alone.
If Laval St. Germain can complete his planned climb up Mount Vinson, he'll have reached the summit on the tallest peak on each continent in the world, he says.
He made it to the top of Mount Everest — and to his knowledge, as the only Canadian to do so without oxygen support. He's also paddled across the Atlantic Ocean, in part as a testament to his son, who died in a canoeing accident in northern Canada.
