    I've been here for 10 months working. I knew since day 1 I wanted to climb it, but knew I wasn't fit enough to do it until now. I head back to Canada in July :)

    It was 1950 meters (I think that converts to around 6,400 feet) This is my first mountain, would love to do some more now :)

    Congratulations! I had some good times in Korea, but don't remember climbing a mountain. What I remember most is visiting a steel mill in Korea. It was an unbelievable rush! Go with your husband, if you get a chance, and I'm betting you'll have a great time afterward. It's very stimulating.

    I'd love to go back to Korea for a visit. I especially miss the Yaki Mandu from my favorite street vendor in Osan. There were a lot of good things to see and do in Korea.

    Sounds like you found a great, fun way to burn calories! Enjoy your adventures.
  • Congratulations! What an accomplishment!

    Did you visit Jeju Island?? That's where I live and where Halla Mountain is... Where are the steel mills? I've been to Busan, and will visit Seoul next month.
