Recorded live at Kendal Mountain Festival 2025, Cathy and Wayne catch up with global mountaineer and adventurer Nigel Vardy aka “Mr Frostbite” to chat about life after his fateful ascent of Mt McKinley/Denali in 1999.
While surviving -60 degree temperatures, Nigel lost his nose, toes and fingers aged just 30. His film “Frostbitten” tells the story of what was the highest and most daring helicopter rescue ever accomplished, his recovery and subsequent return to the mountain and his incredible team of rescuers 25 years later.
