The Everest Challenge - 1998

Top Level | My Home Page | Links | Walks | People | Everest Page | News

In 1998 we kept track of all the hills we climbed, and by keeping a running total of the altitudes, we eventually climbed Everest - but without the frostbite! We found this to be a good way to encourage ourselves to persist whith our walks even when the weather was not ideal.


Mount Everest is 29,028 ft high.

At the end of February our total was
7,919 ft

At the end of April our total was
31,017 ft
So we achieved our challenge in only four months!
