What Is Return to Mount Kennedy About?

The premise of Return to Mount Kennedy without spoilers.

In 1965, Robert Kennedy led an expedition to summit Mount Kennedy in the Yukon Territory, a peak named in his brother's honor. Fifty years later, Jim Whitaker’s sons, Bob and Leif, joined Christopher Kennedy to retrace their father's historic climb, celebrating their shared legacy and close bond.
