She did not have to confess. I was born and raised in Florida so what else would explain it? I have done some time as a climbing instructor here in Colorado. The hardest and highest climbs I have done were when I lived in Florida. Hardest was the Eiger in Switzerland with many avalanches. Highest was Cerro Aconcagua in Argentina which is almost 23,000 ft elevation and 2nd in prominence behind Everest. We climbed Aconcagua as a team of 10 by the difficult Polish Glacier route. It took 3 weeks beginning to end. Very heavy loads starting at about 80 lbs and gradually reduced as we used food and fuel and left stashes for when we would be on the way out.The 80 lbs was with two load carries to establish each camp. We tried for 175 lbs total gear weight per person, but some of the women members could not carry as much so initially I carried more.
Sounds like one helluva lot of hard work. Hope you had a good time.
I too was born and raised in Florida. As a matter of fact, in Walton County which has the highest elevation in the state.
I know it is less than 400 feet. As a matter of fact, while driving to DeFuniak Springs I pass several places well over 300 feet. That is according to my Garmin.
Ii doubt if I could breathe above 10,000.
