http://www.pledgie.com/campaigns/448 My friend and I have wanted to climb Mt. Everest as long as either of us can remember. It's a 5 year plan. Right now we need funding for our equipment for our training mountains on our way to Everest. This equipment includes backpacking equipment like bags, tents, water filters, a GPS, hiking shoes, sleeping bags, pads, knife, multitool, flashlight, water bottles, stove, cooking pot, rope, clothing, and food. We estimate the costs to be $1750 per person, for a total of $3500. This is our only chance to reach the summit. Without outside help we will never have the money to make it happen. Anything you can contribute will be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much. If you have a dream, go for it... en-us
