Note that all dates are logged by reference to UTC (Universal Time Coordinated) where I know the precise summit time. Accordingly elsewhere you may find climbs recorded on different dates. This applies in particular to ALE trips #7 and #8. ALE uses Chilean time which is at UTC -3 hours.

I also list in alphabetical order, first the guides and then the other team members. So this list should not be read as showing who reached the summit first.*

Fewer than 60 people make the list. However this climb is becoming ever more popular with next season’s ALE trip already subject to a waiting list. Do not be surprised if ALE make the decision to run an additional one next year. This reflects the ever growing popularity of the V7S challenge.

This year’s team was led by American guide, Josh Hoeschen, and British guide, Andy Chapman, with eight participants including a four-strong South African contingent. A total of 10 plus aircrew is probably about the largest number the Basler aircraft can manage.

In addition there were three Americans and a Russian. One of the Americans was Roxanne Vogel who, earlier this year, completed the rather remarkable feat of leaving home, climbing Everest and returning home all within 14 days. Adventure-journal published an article about this.

Of the eight clients, five were also Seven Summiters – so a strong team.

By way of reminder, further background information on Mount Sidley and the Volcanic Seven Summits can be found in this blog.

I will post my list of those who I am aware have climbed the Volcanic Seven Summits in a week or so. Four names will be added. As ever if there is anyone who I have missed I am happy to correct the list.

* I would also say that it does not really matter and it is the getting down that counts….
