Mountain Eisenhower Peak Expedition Aims for Capsule Return
Long Beach climbers Jacob and Agnes Verwoerd plan to scale Mount Eisenhower in Banff National Park Alberta to place a sealed capsule with a microfilmed record and Newsweek copies. They will erect a pine marker in Eisenhower’s honor atop The Tower with a flag display and plan a film about the ascent. The event follows the mountain’s 1946 renaming and commemorates the Canadian U S friendship.
