Life List: Climbing Both Matterhorn

I want to climb both Matterhorn. The Matterhorn in Switzerland 14,692 feet above sea level, the mountains of mountains, jagged-toothed and magnetic. The Matterhorn in Disneyland 147 feet above sea level; the summit is towering above Tomorrowland, home to an abominable snowman.

While I’m living, I will to summit both Matterhorn.

Who do you know at Disneyland that can help advise me on how to go about realizing my dream?

Here’s my Life List I first wrote in 2016.

The Matterhorn in Switzerland, formidable, ominous, technical and so inviting.
Forbidding access to most, Disneyland’s Matterhorn. I’ve held the dream to summit her concrete shoulders since I was eight years old.
Mountaineers summit bid on Disneyland’s Matterhorn towering 147 feet above the submarine lagoon. Difficult to access in its own unique way.
