In Nepal, the team found 1,200-year-old hemlock trees. To get to this site, Ed Cook (left), Paul Krusic (right) and Brendan Buckley hiked for 13 days, cored trees for five days and then walked back out. Everything they needed, from equipment to food, they had to carry. Photo courtesy of Brendan Buckley
