Midlife Crisis Mountain!!

David has just spent his 48th birthday on Denali – I wonder if he even remembered! Today, whilst reading a website about Denali, I discovered it had another name beside McKinley – Midlife Crisis Mountain – because it is populated with middle aged amateur mountaineers! I see the weather forecast for Friday is predicting 70mph winds above 16,000 feet……

News from 14′000 feet

Hi,

Just to let people know, I’ve had a satellite call from my fiance Matt Hoey, who is one of the Royal Marines with the team.

They were at 14,200 feet and were pushing up to 16,000+. They hope to summit this weekend.

All are well and happy, if a little cold!!!!
