Seeing Beyond Seven Summits

460 people have stood on the highest mountain of each of the seven continents. None of them has been deaf. Scott Lehmann and Shayna Unger have climbed six of the seven summits and are now just one summit away from becoming the first.

This landmark achievement will help change global perceptions of deaf people, pave a more inclusive and accessible path to exploration, and inspire a new generation of deaf and hard of hearing adventurers.

SHARING THE DREAM

Seeing Beyond: Seven Summits is not just about Scott and Shayna being the first deaf individuals to reach Seven Summits, the highest peaks on each of the world’s seven continents– it is also about two deaf people sharing a dream with their own community, the deaf and hard of hearing community.
