Please thoroughly research all advice before using it in planning your own ascent. Yeah, it's cold. Exactly one week ago today I became the youngest persn ever to complete the Seven Summits at age 17. For all you 7 summitters, look out. But, no, actually, don't.
Fear is what it is all about.
Fear kept me going high on Everest and low on Denali. Let fear challenge you, but never beat you. If it does, then you've lost more than the climb. We found the sun on the summit where all was still for our sureal hour on top.
