A man from my high school, Burkburnett, climbed several of those and had a near death experience on Everest. Beck Weathers. The highest I've been was Fuji and Mt. Scott.

The highest I have climbed was the summit of Cerro Aconcagua in the Argentina Andes. Climbed by the difficult Polish Glacier Route. The summit is just under 23,000 ft. From start to finish this climb took 21 days.
