This website illuminates my life and adventures. My longing for freedom has led me to over 2600 of the world’s 3978 provinces, to every country on earth and to the summit of the highest peak on each continent (thank heaven for good weather!). In my travels, I learned to respect the intelligence and ingenuity of people of all races and callings both past and present. Come see the world as I see it: as a peaceful place, full of nature and beauty. With the right spirit and intent, we can make our world a virtual Garden of Eden.

Australia, Kosciusko Meadow, 1996 - When I climbed Kosciusko, my friend, great Australian adventurer, Jon Muir, told me of a nice route to climb it by, which started at -- if I recall -- Kangaroo Flat -- or some such place, and went up through a eucalyptus forest. I wrote: \"about 16 km up 1800m ascent of Mt Kosciusko, my fifth of the 7 summits, took 5 hours exactly from the 15.5 sign, and somewhat over 4 hours back, darkness delayed me, slipped, sprained my ankle many times!, great alpine territoty\".
