    The lower gravity is a mitigating factor.

    I’ve been planning my ascent since I was four.

    I won’t hesitate to Amundsen you.

      Also it’s so huge that it is basically flat. It’s not a climb but a long trek.

        According to Wikipedia it has a diameter if 600km. Assuming, that the peak of the mountain sits right in the middle you would still have a 300km walk in front of you.
