Due to the untimely death of Dr. Botha's brother Nico, the Russian expedition has been put on hold.
Dr. Botha will be heading to South Africa for the funeral and to be with our family.
Dr. Andries Botha is an incredible Canadian doctor who is taking extreme adventures to the next level! He has already climbed the seven highest summits in the world. Soon he will be the only person to have reached the summits of the seven second highest as well. That's just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what he's done. Follow his amazing adventure here!

Getting Ready for Dykh-Tau
Preparations are in order for the Dykh-Tau climb in Russia. It's classified as the second highest mountain in Europe and will get Dr. Botha one step closer to his dream. He is currently climbing the seven second highest mountains in the world after already having finished the first seven. When he succeeds, he will be the only person to EVER have climbed all fourteen! Very exciting!!
Anyway, after some passport issues, we are now trying to rush the visa and border pass process before he leaves in mid-July for the climb.
This will be the place to check for updates and interesting news along the way! Thanks for your support.
