In May 2009, I travelled to Alaska to climb Denali. You can read about my experiences here:
My Denali experience.

2009 – Denali/Mount McKinley – (6194m) Alaska, North America.

Summit attempted on 25/5/2009, but forced to descend due to inclement weather. Elevation reached: 5700m, just 494m short of the summit! Please read this incredible mountaineering story….the greatest lessons and personal growth occur through heartache and lack of success in the terms of not achieving your goal!
