What happens when a veteran mountain climber with hemophilia returns to mountaineering after a six-year layoff? In 2018, Chris Bombardier became the first hemophiliac to climb the Seven Summits, including Mt. Everest. In 2024, Chris leads a group of climbers with bleeding disorders on a daring attempt to summit Mont Blanc, the highest peak in the French Alps. But is being older and wiser necessarily better? In Season 4 of The Final Summit, Chris and his guests re-tell his entire life story from a new perspective. They’ll talk about finding your path, defining yourself as a role model and a leader, what it means to be a success, and how to change your definition of success.
