How much does it cost to climb Everest
How much does it cost to climb Mount Everest? | Adventure Alternative Expeditions
Just because you have money, that doesn't mean that you have any sense.
I am all about equality for women and older folks, but the truth is that a 55 year old man, really shouldn't be climbing Everest. It was simply an ego trip. I know that no matter how fit you are, you don't have the same stamina at age 55 that a 25 year old has...fact. And I remember the gal who died a few years ago, very tragic. She wanted to "prove" that a vegan can climb Everest. I guess not.
Why not just climb McKinley/Denali? Because it doesn't have the "cachet" of Everest...
