I had heard about this grant through a pro­gram that National Geo­graphic did at Mon­tana State Uni­ver­sity and I started think­ing about things I could do to inspire a story within myself and get over to Nepal. https://joytripproject.com/2013/08/max-lowe-has-a-pedigree-for-adventure/ I went over there for the first time with the Khumbu Climb­ing School. That was pretty awe­some. I was younger then and went over with my fam­ily, so I had a sense of what it’s like. I knew I wanted to go back with my par­ents at some point to see the chorten and spend more time with the peo­ple there. I didn’t have the idea of going with this spe­cific project, but I had heard about this grant through a pro­gram that National Geo­graphic did at Mon­tana State Uni­ver­sity "Max Lowe Has a Pedigree for Adventure POSTED AT 07:41H IN ADVENTURE MEDIA REVIEW, INTERVIEW, NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC, PHOTOGRAPHY, THE CLYMB.COM	BY	JAMES EDWARD "
