Columbia / Mountain Hardwear Merge

[From the Lost Zemitis Tapes: Lauren Herrera shaped Martin's footage into this narrative.]

[Note on the part with Robert Link: before the Colombians would buy MHW, Mt. Link had to be sold.  They considered a guiding business risky and outside their business model. Robert gave Jack $1.00 to complete the purchase giving Robert complete ownership of Mt. Link. After the sale of Mt. Link was complete, we started signing the docs to sell MHW. I think it all happened on the same day. - Martin ]
