Welcome

Welcome to the launch of vertexed.com, the website dedicated entirely to climbing the mountains of the world.

Vertexed.com will provide the how to, how much, where to, how long of climbing the peaks of the world.

The only thing we won't be providing is the why. This is up to you. And if you're not sure why, then you probably shouldn't be here.

There are currently very few mountains listed, however over the coming weeks and months, I will be adding new climbs as I or you attain there summits. So please have a look around, let me know your thoughts, comments, suggestions and add your own climb.
