Read More
In the heart of downtown Seattle lies the Union Gospel Mission -- a homeless shelter catering to the addicted and the abused. For these men and women, hope is a novelty. Self-esteem a luxury. Recovery a faraway ideal. But within the UGM is one man, an ex-Army Ranger, who believes in them. Believes in life. Believes in mountains. And he will attempt to use one of the most treacherous peaks in North America -- 14,400 foot Mt Rainier -- to give these recovering addicts hope again.
