10th July - Conrad Kain Route -

Early one morning, three boys decided to go climb a mountain.	They put on their warmest clothes and walked far far across glaciers and hills to reach their dream	Step by step, plod by plod, they inched closer to the top.	There where times when the felt very tired, but they had a dream.
The youngest boy, Vaughan, nearly lost his sunglasses.	That would have been tragic, for he would go blind from the dazzling brightness of the snow.	Luckily they were found and the boys continued to the top.	Soon they were triumphant!
They found it hard to believe, that in 1916.	A man named Conrad Kain climbed this mountain for the first time, with a pipe in his mouth and steel spikes on his boots.	The boys now tired abseiled down with thought's of how they would celebrate that night.	But they had forgotten about the long walk home, and when they got there, they were too tired to party.
