Warren McDonald - an incredible story

Wednesday morning, I arrived at the Association of Manitoba Municipalties in time to hear Warren McDonald speak.

Several years ago, Warren's world changed dramatically when a climbing accident led to him being pinned under a rock for two days. Both of his legs had to be amputated.

Since then, using short prostheses he developed himself, and a variety of innovative approaches he has climbed various mountains including sheer vertical cliff walls. It is an amazing story of courage, a strong will to live and persistence.

I had a chance to chat with Warren after his talk, as shown in the photo.
