In the summer of 2025, Antonio Paris, a Wildland Firefighter and aspiring Helicopter Pilot, will endeavor to ascend Mt. Elbert in an effort to raise funds for Helitack. Mount Elbert stands as the tallest peak in the Rocky Mountains of North America. This marks the second summit attempt for Antonio following his successful climb in 2022, which generated over $10,000 for disabled veterans. Your contribution to Helitack will be instrumental in supporting programs designed to assist individuals impacted by wildfires, providing crucial aid to the regions most in need.
