Peter Austen's Biography
Dr. Peter Austen is a mountaineer, mountain guide, business consultant, author, educator, and adventure company operator. He speaks five languages and has academic degrees from England, Canada, and the U.S.A. He has lived in six countries and explored in 54 more over the past 40 years, returning intact from many famous peaks, including Everest in Tibet, Mount Communism in Russia, Mont Blanc in France, Mount Robson in Canada, and Alpamayo in Peru.
Peter led Canada's first truly national Everest expedition, the "Climb for Hope", which had Sir Edmund Hillary as patron. Peter arranged for the climb to be filmed, and the resulting acclaimed documentary, narrated by Leslie Nielsen, has been shown frequently on television networks. Everest Canada, The Climb for Hope, Peter's first book, was an account of that expedition.
Peter's articles and photographs have appeared in BC Outdoors, and in North American alpine and trade journals, tourist magazines and guidebooks, web sites (including the BC Adventure site), and newspapers. He gives keynotes, leadership and team-building seminars to diverse groups throughout Canada and the U.S., using his EVEREST EXPERIENCE ® method.
