DAMMMMMMMMN!

[GeneralAmeli0]

You guys are epic WIN

[ondamountain]

your not to the top yet

[jayb89]

Your at least 200 miles south of the Arctic Circle, the Arctic Circle is located farther to the North, just a bit south of the Brooks Range, not the Alaska Range

Nice vid, who cares why people say. At least you're close to the Arctic circle (closer than any other of the worlds tallest peaks). Denali is by far my favorite peak, it's so much more looming and bold than Everest etc... Don't get me wrong Everest is huge but just not as big compared to it's surroundings. I plan on climbing Rainier in 2 years. Can't wait!

[SummerWizz1]

you faggots. you should have took pics of the view.

My Cub Scout troop hiked to the top of Mt. McKinley last Christmas. We spent te night up there, roasted marshmellows, and danced to David Hasselhoff music while there. These guys look like they didn't have half the fun we did. Webelos ROCK !!!

[mcpopester]

Haha dude . . . you're not above the arctic cirlce. You're at least 200 miles south of the arctic circle.

[towinchi]

Hi, we summited July 8th, 2008! Would be amazing if you have any pictures or us on the summit. Thanks



[Maryanne247]

Cool guys! That climb looked amazing

[plsniper]

Congratulations guys! Maybe one day I can celebrate the same thing. For now, It's just Mt.Washington for me. :)

[Tehwizardhatshow]

yea congrats is Mt Washington a hard climb? I only 13 and i am really interested in this kind of stuff for some reason i think its just beautiful but yea is it hard?

[plsniper]

Well, you have to be in a good shape. But being 13 gives you an advantage. You might not have as much strength as a 20 year old, but this is about stamina. As a 13 year old you should have plenty of stamina and endurance as to your body weight. If you decide to climb MtWashington, you should go with someone older than you. Don't go alone. And if you want to do it in the winter, go with a professional guide. Try chauvinguides . com. He's an excellent guide. Good luck to you man!

Im 15 an after climbing Africas and europes highest peak and having been caught up in a snowstorm on mt. blanc you need expirience. I know a man who has climbed denali(book called minus 148 degrees.) survives with three people in a cave for over 2 weeks with no food, water, his hands, feet, etc were all frozen dont think climbing is that easy! especially on Mkinley!

[russianbeast65]

im also 13 and have scaled washington and lafayyete numerous times in the summer though im looking forward to summiting mt.whitney

[emrayev]

Great video - congrats guys.

[MidwestAlpinist]

Congrats on your summit! A few corrections:

-Denali is south of the Arctic Circle.

-Aconcagua is nowhere near the Equator. It is equivalent to Dallas in the Northern Hemisphere.

-The elevation of Denali is 20,340.

This is what lack of oxygen at altitude does to the brain. :-)
