Eric Alexander and Erik Weihenmayer Mount Cook in New Zealand

Eric Alexander and Erik Weihenmayer are currently climbing Mount Cook in New Zealand. Mt Cook at 12,316 feet it is the areas highest peak.

Another climbing adventure with Erik Weihenmayer  to another of the world's greatest summits. We arrived the 10th of December and begin our climb shortly after hoping to summit by the 17th at the latest. After our  attempt of Mt Cook we will be in Queenstown with Bill Laurence for some paragliding adventures and returning home the 22nd of December. As always your thoughts and prayers are much appreciated. Eric

Latest News: It is the 12th and we are waiting for some clear weather here in Queenstown. It should clear by Saturday but for now we are settling for some mt biking, hiking and hopefully some paragliding. Photos of EW and Bill getting on our small but heavy plane and Erik getting a tour of Mt Cook - as close as we have been thus far to the mountain. Having a good time waiting. We got to speak with Sir Edmund Hillary today and there is a slight chance we can meet him - we'll see. More to come soon. Thanks so much Eric Alexander
