I know december isnt the best time to go but I dont think it is a bad time (it will be summer there). It was the only time my wife could get the time off work since we are going over christmas and new years.

You'll love it!
I did it back a few years ago...summited right at sunrise on Christmas morning. It's a great time to go...the weather should be perfect!

I'd love to ascend the majors on each continent.
My wife thinks I'm nuts.
I see a tree, cliff, wall, or mountain and want to climb it.
It's a compulsion that's still alive and well after 41 years on this planet.
Fuji this summer.

Yup.......I plan on doing a sheep hunt this Aug. if I can get in shape. Even when I was young it pretty much maxed me out. Want to try it at least one more time before I can't anymore....
