EverestHistory.com: Douglas Mantle

On May 12, 1992 Douglas Mantle joined the ranks of those who have made it to the top of Everest. Doug has an impressive resume which includes climbing to the high point of each of the 7 continents, completing both the Kosciusko and the Carstensz versions of the seven summits.

Back home in the States Doug is an active member of the Sierra Mountain Club and spends much of his time climbing within the Sierra Nevada Mountains. In fact he has climbed all major 247 Sierra Nevada Peaks five times. He has also climbed the high points of all the western states.
