HIGH ELEVATIONS EQUAL HIGH STAKES FOR TOM!

Tom is headed to Mount Everest. Not only will he get some sweet practice time

in on his new foil kite snowboard, but he and Bud are going to put his latest

invention — a robot Sherpa — to the test. At Everst's high elevations they will

really be able to run the Sherpa through its paces.

But Tom can't quite focus on the tasks at hand because while there are always

rumors of the mysterious Yeti, Tom thinks he's seen one. And what's more is

that there's a nasty bunch of hunters on the prowl to capture the yeti "at any

cost." Tom knows that some things are better left a mystery and vows to do what

he can to protect this natural environment — and any mysterious species

inhabiting it.

Synopsis:

Tom is headed to Mount Everest in another high-tech adventure. Not only will he get some practice time on his new foil kite snowboard, he'll also put his latest invention--a robot sherpa--to the test. But a nasty bunch of hunters out to capture a mysterious yeti distracts Tom.
