Andrew has returned to the Himalaya to attempt to complete Summit 8000, his project to climb all fourteen 8000 metre mountains. With just Shishapangma and Makalu to go, he hopes to climb them both this season. <Further details>
“What (Andrew) has done is outstanding and should not only be seen as an Australian first but more importantly puts him in the running for the international top ten for reaching the toughest grand slam on the planet - the 14 x 8000ers!” — Peter Hillary, renowned adventurer and son of Sir Edmund Hillary, first man to summit Mount Everest.
