[Title] => Climbers endure harsh conditions, scale peak
[Summary] => The daring climb by the first Philippine Mt. Everest Expedition team of the dreaded Mt. Muztagh-Ata in the borders of China and Pakistan had exacted heavy physical and emotional toll on its members.
Despite all these, the seven-man squad, headed by Reggie Pablo accomplished the mission by reaching a peak no other Filipino has ever dared to scale before.
"It’s part of the risk but we were not discouraged," said Pablo, who almost lost a finger due to frostbites.

[Title] => Mt. Everest team sets RP record
[Summary] =>

At 7,546 meters (24,758 feet), the mountain is the highest peak ever reached by Filipinos.
The Everest Expedition Team of climbers and adventure racers was led by Regie Pablo in its succesful attempt to climb Mt. Muztagh Ata.

[Title] => Pinoy climbers to scale Mt. Everest
[Summary] => New Zealander Edmund Hillary and Nepalese Sherpa Tenzing Norgay did it on May 29, 1953. A total of 660 more came after the two brave explorers, including Indonesians and the Malaysians. But no Filipino climbers.
That would soon be a thing of the past as the Philippines formed a united front to accomplish the rare feat — scaling Mount Everest, known as the tallest mountain in the world with a height of 29,035 feet or 8,850 meters which is equivalent to 20 Empire State Buildings.
