Kenton Cool is a 36-year-old mountain guide and seven-times Everest summiteer. This spring he aims to extend his record with a further attempt on the world’s highest mountain and also hopes to help 22-year-old climbing novice Bonita Norris to the world’s highest roof of the world Mt. Everest in her charity challenge.
Kenton Cool was also the first British person to ski down an 8,000m mountain – Cho Oyu in the Himalaya, at 8,201m (26,906 ft), the world’s sixth highest peak.
He will be flying out to Nepal next month with Bonita Norris, who hopes to raise cash for Global Angels with her summit attempt.
