the best (non love related) feeling i´ve ever had was when i reached the top of Kilimanjaro a few years back.

i know its not a massively difficult climb, but the last night climb up a few kilometres of scree rocks up the side of the crater, in the middle of the night, at about -20c (with winds as well) was harrowing to say the least (and thats not including the altitude headache).

but coming to the top, just as the sun was beginning to rise up over the African savannah below, with the light making the snow an amazing golden/pink colour, along with the massive adrenaline burst you get when you finish climbing ..

i mean, this all combined to make a total orgasmic rush that lasted a few days.

(my only regret of the whole experience was that my shitty camera froze and didn´t work at the summit)

well, that was the best feeling in the world... i´ll never, ever forget it.
