There are much more technical mountains/route that can be done without having to commit a bit of time such as those 2.



It's the altitude pursuit for me (in this theory), not the pursuit of more technical climbs. I'd love to do something like Liberty Ridge, though.

I enjoy these as well.

I've made it up to 19,340 when I did Kili a few years back. Altitude was definitely an interesting phenomena. Everyone takes it differently as in the most in shape person in our group was affected the most.

Gotcha. Had a friend get sick on Denali and another made it.

Another just summited Aconcagua. Those summits and their significance aren't my thing but I love to hear stories.
