Mt Fonville is adjacent and northWest of the Fonville Press. It is the new kid's playground for Alys Beach. I think they need a climbing tree at the top.

Yeah, because those of us who work at Fonville will be thrilled when little kids come in and bleed all over our floor after falling out of said tree.

Yeah, but they won't be complaining because they will be the tough kids. :funn:

even when that tree gets imported to the top of Mt. Fonville, there won't be anything hard for anyone to fall onto. all the tourists have gleaned it of everything except the grass. not a pebble to be seen.

i was waiting up there for hours, a couple meteres from the summit, waiting for him to show, almost depleting my own 02. He was moving pretty slow since he was making an unassisted ascent. it was a very triumphant moment, but quite fleeting since we both had to race down toward camp IV before the weather set in(we would have been caught in the dark without provisions) and we never would have survived the night. the sherpas welcomed us with open arms and a mug of piping hot, fresh Amavida coffee. all 'because it's there'
