Never before has Mt. Everest had a dedicated team of Sherpas trained and ready to perform rescue operations. Until now.

Everest Air is a six-part reality show, launching today, that follows the first dedicated team of search-and-rescue Sherpas.
The team of five Nepalis, led by chief medic and Everest expedition veteran Jeff Evans, perform high-risk and stunning helicopter rescues during a typical (and treacherous) season on the storied mountain.
“Everest has become more of a circus each year,” Evans told us on a recent call. “It’s basically a shit show.”
