"We climbed to the summit with our Girl Scout troop on the beautiful day of Sunday, November 18, 2012! We had a great time climbing the many rocky trails & using the ropes! The girls learned how to help each other out & to be mindful of nature. We had a great time & will come back many times!" — christinaannbarber77 • Nov 18, 2012

"Solo attempt on the highest peak in South Korea, but happen to be hiking with at least 500 or more Koreans. Lots of snow i had to use crampons which i was able to buy at the trail head. Very beautiful and cold. Was able to complete the whole hike in five hours. Many Koreans would stop and smile at me on the trail almost like they where amazed to see a round eye white guy on the trail. Even know i don't know any Korean some guys offered me some jerky when i stopped to rest. Korean hiking was very different there where many places on the trail to stop and sit. Also close to the top there was a place where you could buy hot soup, and they had bathrooms on the trail, twice." — elbesto • Dec 21, 2011
