So far, the only mountain I was able to climb was Mt Pulag in Benguet. I'm a newbie so it was kinda difficult for me plus we trekked to the camp site at night. It was an achievement(for me) to reach the summit and watch the sunrise. It was breath taking. :)

It wasn't technically a mountain, but I have climbed Mount Vesuvius in Italy. It was very cool to climb to the top and look into the crater where steam rises and everything...although to be honest I didnt climb it. Its more like a steep hiking trail. But it was fun - good luck with Everest!

I have climbed four mountains in my lifetime. I was aged 18 years old when I climbed a mountain in Norway. At the top I saw lots of mist. Then when I was 20 years old I climbed Mount Warning in Australia. The last part of the walk up was really steep. Then the third mountain I climbed when I was 29 years old. It was in Northland in New Zealand. I had to go down the experienced climbers only route coming down. I saw some very picturesque views. Also when I was that age I climbed a mountain in French Polynesia. The weather was hot so it was a challenging experience. When I was 28 years old I stayed on the top of Mount Davis in Hong Kong. Now I have a son that is unable to walk I won't be able to go up anymore mountains I think.

hi there... wow, what a nice hobby you have now...i wish i could do the same but too bad that i just can't. so you have been to Mt.Apo? how was it in there? i think exploring the Mt. Everest is every mountain climber's dream...so i wish you could do that in the near future following the steps of Garduce... on my part, well the only mountain that i have climb is the Mt. Makiling in our place but just on peak2. hehe and here in Cebu just there in Mt. Manunggal if im not mistaken but of course its not really that exciting since its just like a group walk with my friends...hehe

Well - we have so many dreams and will be going on dreaming until some fail but some get succeeded. The same thing happened with me.I am a photographer and wished to see the birth place of River Ganga. A day came which made me to move to that place.I had to cross seven Himalayan glaciers to reach the birth place of Ganga - wonderful this is a rare experience which stands an asset for me in life. I am really proud of this.

i was able to climb two mountains only - one in siniloan, laguna (for an environmental cause) and one in batangas (gulugod baboy - just for bonding with friends) those mountains were just average ones :) just right for beginners. i missed doing it though :((

Only one moutain, DianCang Mountain in Dali, Yunnan Province, China. about 3000 meter above sea level. But well developed with stairs, haha! I climbed MaoHui Hill in my hometowm all by myself. MaoHui hill is a small nameless hill, only less than one thousand meters above sea level, and never exploited. It took me one morning to climb up handreds of meters to reach the top and overlooked the whole city. Wonderful!
