Plot Synopsis

Expert mountaineer, medic and adventurer Jeff Evans leads his Alpine Rescue Service (ARS) team of Sherpas and helicopter pilots higher and further than any group has gone before. Together, they come to the aid of climbers in need who are bent on mastering Mount Everest, the world's highest peak. Each hour-long episode of EVEREST AIR provides a rare glimpse into the exhilarating encounters and unrivaled majesty that compel climbers to take on this challenge. The series opens as the climbing season begins, Evans and his ARS helicopter team hit the slopes for the first time ever, risking life and limb to extract two separate injured climbers, both from 21,000 feet. Meanwhile, the ARS team provides emergency medical relief to a local boy suffering from a potentially fatal condition. With three lives in the balance, it's the perfect initiation to the season ahead. Then, two weeks into the Everest climbing season, Evans and his ARS team face new challenges. Risking their lives to save others, they perform a rare and nearly impossible rescue, landing a helicopter deep within the treacherous Khumbu Icefall, locate a remote village to provide life-saving medical care to a young man and battle extreme weather to extract two severely ill climbers from Camp 2. With four sick patients, the ARS needs all hands on deck to get everyone home alive.
