SUMMARY:Monthly Talk - The story of climbing Denali\, the highest point in North America
DESCRIPTION:In 2023 we enjoyed the wonderful story of climbing Everest from Amanda Richmond. With both Everest and Kilimanjaro ‘under her belt’\, Amanda wondered if the Seven Summits (the highest point on each continent) were within her grasp. Amanda then climbed Denali in 2017 and this is her story of the ascent. \nDenali in Alaska is the highest point in North America. Although only 6190m in height\, it is super-tricky\, mainly because of the difficulty of predicting cold\, wind and snow. Denali is probably the most strenuous of the Seven Summits. It requires that climbers know advanced glacier skills\, rope team travel\, and involves heavier load carries.

SUMMARY:Canasta Group 2
DESCRIPTION:Canasta originated in Montevideo\, Uruguay in 1939. \nInitially\, you make melds of 3 cards of the same value which you build on to make a Canasta (7 cards). Cards have different values according to their face value. The purpose of the game is to reach 5\,000 points. The more points you score\, the more card values you need to put in an initial meld – in other words\, you are handicapped. This is what makes the game interesting. \nI have a copy of the Canasta card game that we would follow because I know that there are several different ways to play.
