Hi Friends,

Paul Pritchard (that's me) is at it again. This time leading (or not, as the case may be) an all disabled team on a Human Powered Vehicle mission of over 2000km’s starting at Australia’s lowest point, Kati Thanda/Lake Eyre (-15.2m) to the highest point at the summit of Targangil/Mount Kosciuszko (2228m). Nobody has achieved this journey across deserts and over mountain ranges before.

My last film ‘Doing It Scared’ captured my ascent of the Totem Pole in southern Tasmania, a climb which 18 years prior almost cost me my life. Through support of the community Hobart's Rummin Productions were able to raise funds to complete the film. Doing It Scared screened in over 40 countries, it even was shown in Antarctica!

To raise funds to film this upcoming expedition the team have launched a crowdfunding campaign:
https://pozible.com/project/lowest-to-highest
which is ending on the 9th July.

There are a range of great rewards for backers - from postcards from the road to your body-weight in beer. So check out the Pozible fundraiser if you are interested.

Please support our Lowest to Highest - Australia film at:

Cheers,

Paul.

Good luck on what seems like a fantastic adventure. Would love to see "Doing it Scared" and even buy a copy. Is it available for purchase anywhere? By the way, Deep Play is one of my favorite books (of any genre) and I cherish my old hardbound copy.

Cheers,

Thank Tami, It's going to be an epic journey and the film will be - think: Pricilla Queen of the Desert meets The Cars that ate Paris! Hope you're on fire...
