Growing up, the Ridwan kids had to deal with a dad obsessed with climbing hills. Although, this obsession rarely resulted in the actual climbing of hills. Rather, him pestering the kids to walk up hills, attributing people's illnesses to the fact they didn't walk up enough hills, and expressing his dreams to walk up all of the hills (with trig stations) in Canberra.
The kids are very sorry they never followed through with the IOU promises (that they gave their dad on many birthdays) to walk up hills.
They think it's about time to start climbing those hills so are sending their dad on a mission, and have started this blog to serve as diary of this adventure.
According to Wikipedia (legitimate source of all wisdom), there are 42 'mountains' in Canberra.
Details of mission
Mission given to: Eddie
Mission: To climb as many hills in Canberra as possible, upload a photograph from the top and rate the hill in difficulty
Support crew: Adam, Amalia, Ceri and Sofia (who will accompany when possible and record their climb of other hills in their various regions of habitat)
Final messages: Good luck.
RECORDED CANBERRA HILLS CLIMBED SO FAR: 12
Map: Google map showing the places we climbed: Ridwans on Top map
A diary of the mountains, hills, volcanoes and related inclines we have conquered. Started in Canberra, Australia but potentially anywhere in the world.
