Trip Objectives

Stand on the summit

Experience the freedom of the hills

See the curvature of the earth from land

“Enjoy life” as Mallory said

“Dare Mighty Things” as Theodore Roosevelt said

I have 3km of height to gain from Base Camp. Yaks will carry my gear to Advanced Base Camp. From there onwards, I will carry all my required gear and establish 4 camps on my way to the summit. Remember that I will have no Sherpa support and will use no oxygen!

Why not sponsor 1p, per meter you think I will climb - my target is 3,027m in height gained, therefore your total sponsorship will be just over 30gbp if I reach the summit. Use the comment field to state your sponshorship details...
So please sponsor me now and many thanks on behalf of the Rainbow Trust for your support.
