[Summary] => Is P15-M too much to ask for in exchange for glory to the Philippines? The question is easy to answer but for Leo Oracion, the first Filipino to reach the summit of Mt. Everest, the amount is hard to come by.

[Title] => RP expedition team drops North Face in Everest quest
[Summary] => The North Face, distributor of mountaineering apparel, is no longer a sponsor of the First Philippine Mt. Everest Expedition Team.
