You might groan at the thought of another reality show, but this one has a contestant I want to cheer for.
Mark Burnett is the man behind a new summer reality show on ABC called “Expedition Impossible,” in which 13 teams of three will travel across mountains, deserts and rivers in Morocco. Think “Amazing Race” without all the airport drama.
Among the 13 teams is one with Colorado connections. Erik Weihenmayer, from Golden, was the first blind man to reach the summit of Mount Everest, and also has climbed the Seven Summits.
His teammates: Jeff Evans, from Boulder, a physician assistant, and soldier Ike Isaacson from Topeka, Kan.
Their team name: No Limits. The show premieres June 23.
