Well I have already started to plan my next major adventure, this time staying on with the adventure - rather than getting persuaded by drink and clubs ;)
This time i have decided to think big....in fact.....very big.
Here is a picture of what i will *hopefully* be doing between next year between the months of April 28th & May 29th.
Here is a picture of what it is and where i will be going *up to*.

If you haven’t guessed it already, its the tallest mountain in the world, Everest (just over 29,000ft).
However i won't be going all the way to the summit (due to cost problems - and more preparation time needed. So i will be hopefully climbing 3/4 the way up to 23,000ft to the "North Col".
A website will be set up shortly, but ill see how it goes. However I do have a backup plan.....
If the Nepal situation gets worse, again... then i will be visiting a different mountain called
Stok Kangri located in Ladakh which sits at around 20,830 ft.
