What is it like to be on the summit of New Zealand's highest mountain, Aoraki Mount Cook?
Click on the word video to see this amazing solo climb by Greg Duley of Aoraki Mount Cook, New Zealand's highest mountain just a few weeks back.
When I was much younger, I climbed Aoraki three times. The first in 1968 by the Linda route, then on Christmas Day 1971 I did the east ridge with Chris Timms, descending into the Hooker valley. Then in 1973 I did a guided ascent with 64 year old client Vern Leader, and fellow guide Aat Vervoorn. Some photographs of various climbs of Aoraki.
