| Ultimate Thriving Machine |

| For "Big Jeff" In 1997, Brian lost his best friend and fellow mountain climber, Jeff Walker to kidney cancer. It was always Jeff's wish that Brian "get the word out" about cancer prevention. For the last 13 years, Brian has done just that-sharing the message while honoring Jeff's memory. Brian has climbed 3 mountains in 36 hours, 8 mountains in 6 days and biked from Mount Adams to Mount St Helens with ascents at both ends. With him on every trek were Jeff's ashes and the memories of their amazing adventures together. Brian has shared Jeff's message with the public through newspaper and magazine articles, as well as featured coverage on NW News channels. Recently, friend John Platt has joined him on his treks through the Northwest. His most recent project, a manual for "The Ultimate Thriving Machine" is a straightforward look at how men (and the women who love them) can take care of the most common cancers in men. This website was created to promote his FREE educational manual and as a resource for preventative health care for men and is done in loving memory of "Big Jeff." Brian has been a family practice Physician Assistant since 1987, currently working in Longview, WA. Besides climbing mountains, he can be found riding his mountain bike throughout the NW or just spending time with friends and family. "Goodnight Jeff, I'll see you on our next adventure." |
