Tri-City Man Ascends Mount St. Helens Using a Kite! [VIDEO]
Aaron sales 42 is a local guy that had a goal!! a goal to use a snowkite on a mountain!!
he ascended 3,150 vertical feet in less than 35 minutes. According to his Facebook page
Several times over the past 10 years I have put the goal of reaching the summit of St Helens on the back burner. Kids, jobs, relationships, and life can all get in the way. It would have been easier to give up but this dream never faded. One of the more valuable lessons I have learned, is to be persistent, never give up and and that failing is OK. Failing means you're trying. Learn from those failures and maybe someday the wind will blow you to the top of a mountain. Never stop dreaming!
Check out the video!
