***Six hours*** from the base of the mountain to the top? And then six back down again?

So you're saying 12 hours total walking??? Yeow! Niluial you footweary traveller you! (Take a nice hot bubble-bath! Sing hey for the bath at close of day...)

Well, how far is that? Going up the mountain I'll guess 12 x 2. Do you think you were walking 2 miles/ hour or 3 miles/ hour? 3 is awfully fast for mountain climbing, I'd guess two.

So twenty-four miles. If it's a little over, I'd say so what!

Niluial zooms past the rest of us, hair streaming in the wind...
