Mountaineering: Climbing The Seven Summits
One of the milestones of my life is my completion of the Seven Summits, the highest point on each continent. My quest began in 1995 with the ascent of Denali while I was a schoolteacher in Phoenix, Arizona. After this exhilarating feat, I committed to life as a full-time adventurer. I climbed to the highest point on each of the 7 continents over the course of 13 years, and, in 2008, I stood atop Carstensz Pyramid, my final continental summit, completing my goal.
