CONGRATULATIONS, Samantha! What am amazing accomplishment to bag all 7 summits. Cheers to your father as well. Savor the moment as these are memories that are truly rare and precious.

Congratulations, Samantha! As the mother of a new baby girl (seven months old now) I am always looking for stories to tell her about the limitless world of possibilities before her. What you and your dad have accomplished is definitely on the list. I am very proud of you and so excited to tell Piper all about it when she is old enough to understand, her climbing right now is limited to stair cases and crib rails. Way to go, Samantha (and not too bad, Dad, either!). Safe journeys!
We are so proud of you! It must be amazing to now be reviewing all of the support, celebration and well wishes coming your way from literally around the world!
We look forward to all that in in your future as you take these Summit experiences and encourage people everywhere to pursue their passions and live their dreams.
So awesome young lady..I am impressed..I attended http://www.csulb.edu back in the day..lived in LB for a number of years...what a wonderful place to live..You go girlllllllll...What's next...Have you done McKinley, or Whitney?
I am Uma from India,chennai.I liked your writings and i am really happy for u and congratulations for you and your father reaching the top of the Mt.Everest.I really have the dream of climbing mt.everest. U had ur father with u to fulfill ur adventure.there is no doubt u r really lucky about it.Is there any kind of training you had before looking forward to this adventure?how did ur prepare urself for this adventure? . After coming down from the mountain please update about this in ur blog.
Good work Samantha. You're an inspriation for me and I'm 63. Just think of the many young people you will inspire to "go for their dreams". Congratulations and have a good life. Lloyd Martin
Miss Samantha, Congrats to you and your Dad. One summit is an accomplishment, two would be awesome, but seven? You are amazing! You will certainly inspire other young women (and men), but I hope noone breaks your record for a long time. Tell your Dad that Larry Elder was discussing the two of you on his 790KABC radio show yesterday (Tuesday, May 22nd). Mr. Elder was extremely critical of your Dad for putting you in danger. I hope he will have the decency to have the two of you on as interview guests so that he can hear how well-prepared and well-trained you were for each climb. He was very 'quick to judge' and I was a little surprised. Thank you for putting Long Beach in the news in a most positive way and for clearly inspiring people from all over the world! All the best to you. The sky's the limit . . . or beyond!
Wow, what an amazing accomplishment! Congrats! And all the best for a safe journey back down. IO'm a stranger from Washngton, DC who found your story inspirational!
Can I leave a message for David? Unlike the people urging you to go on to the next challenge, how about some well-earned R&R at the beach? You are invited: Aug. 1-15. Peter Waksman
WOW ! Amazing a young girl climbs the world's highest peak. That sounds really odd ...I am very much inspired by the great works of you and your father. Best of luck in the future expedition. You are the world's top news....At last one suggestion...ples do allow anonymous comments because if you don't the other blogger of another account cannot commetn on your blogsite....It is just there at the comment section panel....Cheers and keep on your good work.
CUDOS TO UR inner strength & specially to your DAD. not every one is so lucky like you. everyone must have praised you better than me. i am impressed by your achievement. COZ OF UR PASSION. May GOD gives you long and healthy life to climb more as well share your experience & skill with others.
i am also a mountain lover like you. but not so lucky. i am documenting one of the most neglected mountain range(in INDIA,MAHARASHTRA) trying to give justice to tribal & wildlife. it comes into the world's most endangered HOTSPOT. from past 6 yrs I AM PHOTOGRAPHING & treking as well climbing. ( i am 26yrs.) u can see my work on : www.flickr.com/photos/pastograph/

Congratulations for the feat! As a stranger passing through your blog, may I ask you a personal question? I would be grateful if you answer and also I would not mind if I do not get the reply but I'd like to ask anyway. "What was the first thing that came in your mind when you saw the view from atop Mt. Everest?"
Great job! Now what, Disneyland? Really, are you going to Stanford now? If your speaking tour ever takes you to schools and venues of Cary(Raleigh), N.C., you are more than welcome to the 'Tarheel State'!
Congratulations Samantha! We may be complete strangers, but having read about your journey makes me feel like I know you. I am proud of your achievement! :)
Hey congratulations on your accomplishment! I first heard about what you have done when my aunt went up to me and said, "I saw you on the news today...just kidding!" It turns out we have the same name! Anyway, I wish you all the best from a fellow Samantha Larson!
Hi I just read about you in teen vogue and you really inspired me. I am twelve and ,although I do climb, my dad and I are very into backpacking, but you have inspired me to start mountain climbing even though it looks tricky! I don't know when you'll ever get this, but I just wanted to thank you for such a great story and congradulations on climbing mount eversest! Ally scotts Valley, California
Hi I am Samantha Ann Larson too! I am not as great as you but i play basketball instead! Well you are a great insperation.I hope I can live up to our name!

If interested, my school district does have Skype capabilities so if interested please let me know.
Student Questions 1. Did you have time for any outside relationships while climbing all the seven summits? 2. Do you want to keep climbing with you father or with other people? 3. Did any of your friends climb the summits with you? 4. How much did it cost for travel expenses and so forth to climb the seven summits? 5. How long has climbing the seven summits been your goal?
