I’d try but I hear the air is very thin at 350 ft ASL.

What is that FL lat and long ?

I thought the highest spot in FL was in the panhandle, near the Alabama border.

Looks like chicks and old guys do it all the time. There’s even a train if you care to wait for it.

“A climb of Mount Paektu. To save time I would have taken the tram to the saddle but it was to be a long wait. The electricity went out on the tram and I also had to make the walk down. Well worth it anyway.”

Good point.

I don't know the names of any mountains in North Korea, but I do know that when one is atop the highest mountain peak in a given area, one does not normally need to look up to see the peak of an adjacent mountain.

He looks more like.... Chuck Roast.
