Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Made it!

Having done our training and acclimatisation it looked like we were not going to get up Mont Blanc because of bad weather, with forecast of thunder and lightning and heavy snow on the day we had planned our attempt. Fortunately, we got a break in the weather and had a beautiful sunny clear day for our attempt on the summit, a day earlier than planned. We went via Mont Blanc de Tacul and Mont Maudit, a long but spectacular route. We could see for hundreds of miles and look down on the summits for miles around. It was exhilarating but exhausting!

I am extremely grateful for all those who have sponsored me and help raise money for the Circulation Foundation. Anyone who has not donated, do not worry you still can via the justgiving link.

Picture shows me on the summit.

Thank you for your generosity.

Shane MacSweeney

PS all donations go to Circulation Foundation, I have paid my expenses myself.
