jackalope14 Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 I have been in the rocky mountains in Colorado. It was really fun and although I'm afraid of hights I still loved it. We drove on some pretty high cliffs and everyone would get out of the car and look over the edge except me. :ohnoes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxiemumu Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 Mt. beirdstadt, a 14er, not sure exactly how tall, but yeah. Out her in colorado we've got lots of 14ers :D. We hiked beirdstadt, and then rock climbing like 30 feet free soloing, and 60 ft on rope, 5.12. Only 27.. RIP Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, and Janice Joplin.

So, even if a mountain is say 14,684ft. it's just called a 14er. Only 27.. RIP Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, and Janice Joplin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oy_the_Great Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 I used to be in a climbing club, and we went to climb the Mont Blanc. So that's the highest I've ever been; 4808 metres. Of course I've been twice as high while flying to America; but I guess that doesn't count. And I've also been twice as high in other circumstances.

And since all vibrations are theoretically sound, then it is not unreasonable to suggest that the universe is music and should be perceived as such.

Giordano Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 1000+ feet (approx) on the Sear's Tower. Good view that was. : Highest I climbed, was probably 20 feet to the top of my house. :oops: "The cry of the poor is not always just, but if you never hear it you'll never know what justice is."

jak722 Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 400 metres (1,312 feet) Up Taal Volcano in the Phillipines on a hiking trip there once. Went up to the lip of the crater but didnt go inside cause the path was very steep and unstable being a volcano and all...

Militaris Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 The highest I can say for certain would be mt Riley at 1314m, although I have climbed mt Robert which is 1421m (But not sure if I was on the summit, was during a storm so had other things on my mind) Also climbed part of the way up a few other mountains, because I did not reach the peak my exact height is unknown. Edit Just found that Mt Patriarch was higher then the other two, it is 1656, but it was kind of cheating because we drove about halfway to the top and there was a dirt road 90% the way up. I suspect mt Riley would of been a higher climb. I have also climbed a good distance up mt aicken, peak 1858. Although, did not reach the peak due to not having the right equipment and leaving to late in the day. mine was about 2000meters, up on a mountain here in new zealand called mt ruapehu If you reached the summit it would be 2,797 metres (9,175 feet).

Hobgoblin11 Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 D of E award, climbed Sca-fell pike by mistake :lol: One wrong turn and we were going uphill instead of downhill, and we were too kncackered to realise! Anyhows, we were supposed to camp out by Styhead tarn at about 700 metres, instead we climbed to the top of Sca-fell, didnt realise where we were, stood on top, saw that we were on the highest point that we could see and though, 'Hmm, this aint it'! So, we climbed to a little over 3000 feet, and camped out at about 2800 feet, on a hill, in the snow, with an estuary flowing under our tent, and 4 big guys sharing a 2 man tent (for warmth). Good times! 99/99 Fletching, 99/99 Cooking, 96/99 Strength Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D3M0NX Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 How many miles is it to get to space from the ground? Thats the highest i have ever been and i bet i wont get any higher lol. I went to the border of space. It was really really expensive though. Never do it again though because the plain was coming down really fast and we almost crashed.
