A group of charity fundraisers from Perthshire spent four days in the Swiss Alps climbing the equivalent altitude of Mount Everest while uphill skiing.
At the end of February 2023 the Scottish team flew out to Verbier in Switzerland to make a start on the Everest in the Alps challenge.
Their aim was to climb uphill 8860m which meant skiing for 10-12 hours a day, making multiple ascents and skiing back down. Each day, over four days, they were using the same energy required to complete three back-to-back marathons.
