May 24, 2007

Eighteen year old Samantha Larson from Long Beach in California said climbing Everest was filled with lots of difficult moments and that the trip was long and hard. Larson was just 12 years old when she scaled Mount Kilimanjaro in Africa along with her father. After that the father and daughter team set their sights on conquering the ''Seven Summits', the seven mountain peaks known as the highest in the world and scattered across seven continents.
