A Calgary man has started his climb up the tallest mountain in the world.
Bill Borge, 36, has been in Nepal for about two months, getting his body used to Everest’s high altitude.
He hopes to reach the summit by the middle of this week.
The adventurer is doing this to raise money for charity.
Borger’s climb has already given the Calgary Handibus Association over $375,000.
