    I did this trip with The Bucketlist Company and I can’t recommend them enough - such a great group and a great group leader who looked after us and sorted everything from start to finish. Check out all of their trips at thebucketlistcompany.co.uk/

    Well done! What an experience! I had tears in my eyes watching you get to the top. Remembering all the hard things I’ve done in my life and kept going. We should all be very proud of ourselves. We can do hard things.

    Well done Grace! Did a 3 week trek in the Atlas in 2008 , and did Toubkal at the end , and did find it hard due to the altitude . Remember saying goodbye to our mules at the end in Imlil , as they departed in the back of a lorry ! Mules and guides had been super for a whole 3 weeks . An experience I’ll remember forever ....now 75.
    Do it whilst you’re young ! Cheers DaveH

    Good job Grace!; congrats!!! Never heard of this mountain before. FWIW: I was a seasonal guide on Rainier, last time was 2008. (I'm 66 now- and worn out). That season was 15 ascents, with 12 successful. (weather + client injuries).

    Enjoyed that, did it 4 or 5 year ago and it brought back good memories. I did it with Mo and co too so it was good to see them.
    I didn't suffer from the altitude luckily, but it's just down to bad luck and nothing else if you do suffer. From the refuge onward it was snow for me and I wasn't expecting it and tbh found it quite scary.
    Great film and thanks for sharing.
