I’ve already climbed WA, but would come back to visit a school. Let me know if you have a school we can visit! JR
When will you be in Virginia, and where will you be?
Aidan, I just passed through there during the storm the other day! on my way to NC
But, I will be back later this year. Watch my blog for more news!!!
Jordan, do you have plans to visit Colorado? Sure hope so!
Hi!
Heck yes, but it will be in 2013. Come climb with us!!
JR
Its an honor to speak with you. I am 43 and have climbed 18 14ers in colorado and Mt whitney in california. I only stick to class 2 and 3 climbs – never had any experience with tougher stuff. Do you have a closer time frame of when you might be in colorado? Id love to climb Mt elbert again. That would be an easy one for you. Happy trails:)
hey, i’m not sure about Elbert….January perhaps! Looking for a mid winter epic!!
JR
Do post about your Elbert plans when you finalize them… January would be totally EPIC if it ever snows in this state.
Hi Team Jordan! I was wondering if you have plans to visit Nebraska? I’d love for my nephews to hear your inspiring story and message!!
Hi Wendi, i will certainly be there , in 2013!
Come climb with me!
Hi!

Jordan

Where will you be in Tampa, FL on October 20th?
Hi Rhonda, We have come and gone! presented to YPO.
Hope you keep climbing!!
Jordan, I made it to the highest point in PA in September, I would love to make it to the highest point in all 50 states. First,though, I am running a marathon on all 7 continents, my first one is December 1st in Delaware. It would be great to get to the highest spot in Delaware with you when you get here.
Best,Nikolas
Nikolas
I was there earlier this year…not exactly a tough climb, but cool town!

JR
Hi, Jordan are you comming to Gorgia thanks.
hey! I will be coming out to present on Earth day in April…
Hope to see you
stay tuned for details!!
Not such a dramatic peak at 3,491 feet above sea level, but one of my favorite places. When do you think you’ll be returning to the Northeast to summit Mount Greylock in Massachusetts. Would love to take you for a flight over the mountain when you’re here.
You are very kind! But I’ve already climbed Greylock.
SUPER beautiful indeed.
Let’s climb!
Hi Jordan, I am starting to put together a trip plan for Gannett in July or August 2013… a 3 or 4-day stroll from Cold Springs. One of the people in the group is hoping to be the youngest girl to climb the CONUS state highpoints, and this should be her #48 HP. Any interest in joining a couple of young climbers on the best of the lower states HPs?
Hey Douglas,
Super cool to get your email.
Man, this sounds kinda fun.
I could consider it if my schedule works out.
Really thank you for reaching out to us!
Jordan
I have just heard about your amazing story in school the other day. I’m actually very interested in Mt. Everest. I have read soooo many books and seen soooo many shows about it. I was wondering if you were coming to connecticut anytime soon because i would love to know how climbing an actual mountain would feel. All i have done is the rock walls at places, so I’m kind of a beginner. Or do you know of any good places? Thanks!
Hey Molly, hope you had good holidays!!!
Hey Jordan i was wondering when and if your coming to utah?
Hi there Christian-
I’m actually coming on 22 till 26 of Jan!
See you at OR show??
Idk i have to do a report on someone who climbed Everest and I looked up youngest person to climb it and that was you so Im going to do my report on you i guess. You want to help by answering some questions?
Hi Jordan,
You’ve got an amazing story and alot to teach my students. Any chance you’re coming to the Bay area (San Francisco) anytime this year?
Thanks for all you do!
Hey Mindy,
Well, I could always be talked into coming to Bay area. I need to get to Tahoe this spring!
Let us know what you have in mind!
Jordan
Travelling to Everest, climbing the Himalayan peaks, exploring the Sherpa Culture, being at the world’s highest places is no compare with others…
Better to join for Everest Tour …
Hi Jordan
If you do come to the Bay Area….there are some teen teams at the various climbing gyms that would love to hear your story…and I’m sure we could arrange something at my son’s school Oakland School for the Arts.
Marguerite
Very nice to hear from you.
Thank you for the kind email.
I was just at Stanford some weeks ago
I’d be honored to come back up and visit Oakland School for the Arts…
Please reach out to us-
As an elementary school we are following two family members as they climb Mt. Everest. One of the questions the students asked was who is the youngest to reach the top, so we found you! Will you ever be in the Dallas, Texas area? Do you Skype or Facetime? We would love to chat with you or have you at our school.
Love your mission!

McAuliffe Elementary

Hi Jordan!
I am a third grade teacher, and I think your story is amazing! I live in Charleston, SC. We don’t have mountains here, but I would love if you could talk to our students! I think they would truly benefit from seeing such a hard working, cool kid like yourself achieving his goals at such a young age! Do you have plans to come down to Charleston?
Thanks for being such a great role model for kids!
