Climb Every Mountain - wahtever your age!

In 2007, Carroll Koepplinger aged 79, trekked two weeks in Spain, but in 2008, he walked a longer stretch from LePuy in France to the Pyrenees, a total of 430 miles, with four friends from the States.

In May 2009 he and three friends, Jay Bretz, Don Walton and I, began the route that starts in Geneva, Switzerland, and walking the 230-mile section from there to LePuy through the French Alps, crossing the Rhone River, and then hiking through the mountainous Massif Central, all in 16 days.

Congratulations and what an encouraging hobby for the baby-boomer generation!
