I will definitely be there in support of Jeff and Connie!
I had the good fortune of landing three mint condition Hummingbird tools in the plastic a few years ago.
At the end of filming in 2012 I had one of the three and one of my own engraved by hand to help in the fund raising effort for Metanoia.
I have also been assembling an array of museum quality Lowe gear including the axe shown above to be displayed prominently in the planned Jeff Lowe Outdoor Sports Academy. I am happy to provide further details on request.
The next Metanoia Level Sponsor will receive not only the engraved Hummingbird but also a place of honour in connection with this display and the Lowe legacy in perpetuity.
I have two other blank Hummingbird Axes that will go to major sponsors but #1 really needs to remain on permanent display once the Academy opens its doors. I am keeping #4 which is in less than pristine shape.
I also have a big wall banner (48" wide) in the works of this classic Tom Frost shot of Jeff on Ama Dablam in 1979.

Uh,.. H, sometimes you have to go to the mountain.
I hope that Jeff has tires with crampon spikes he can swap on.
